01What it does

What Ageless Aviation Dreams Foundation Inc does

Mission

The ageless aviation dreams foundation is a non-profit organization established and dedicated to honoring seniors and united states military veterans. The primary focus is on individuals living in long-term care communities. Our mission is togive back to those who have given. Through our donors, the foundation provides dream flights in a boeing stearman biplane, the same aircraft used to train many military aviators in the 1940's. Ageless aviation dreams foundation's mission is to share the joy of flying primarily with veterans and seniors living in independent and assisted living facilities. Senior veterans have been forgotten for the service they gave to our countrys freedom and the wisdom they will carry to the grave. We will take seniors and veterans on an airplane ride to give back to those who gave our country freedom. This is an effort to recognize them for the contribution they gave for our freedom and allow those that were in any branch of the military, armed forces or air for

Each line starts at 100 in 2018, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2018, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

From the IRS filings of AGELESS AVIATION DREAMS FOUNDATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $73k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
