I Hart Flying Foundation (IHFF) in partnership with Girls Love to Fly (GLTF) awarded more than $18,000 in scholarship funding and pilot training packages to five women pursuing careers in aviation. Through an “All Hands on Deck” themed opportunity, the non-profit organizations selected Allison Scholtthaur, Megan McArthur, Kate Olaf, and Pepper Rhodes as IHFF Hart Scholars and Monica Jageman as a GLTF Dedicated Aviator.
“At I Hart Flying we work hard, put in the effort, and recognize the workforce issue across our industry. We have a hand in changing this story,” said Rachelle Spector, founder of IHFF. “We’re thrilled to aid these deserving women who showed up, put in the work, and illustrated to our organizations that they strive to become professional pilots. Each winning scholar currently mentors, is involved in giving back to their communities, and has plans to become airline, corporate, or cargo pilots. They dream, they devote, they achieve!”
