About Youth Aeronautics Aviation Program (YAEF)

YAEF Aviation Program is unique in that aviation is used as a tool to motivate youth of Williamsburg-James City County to learn science and math. All funds raised go toward funding aviation ground and flight training for local and at-risk students.

To offset our October, 2009 budget we are seeking your donation to help guide our students down scientific paths that have the potential to lead them toward life-time careers in the sciences. This will enrich our community and create growth opportunity for youth in sciences and will have a wide range of potential applications.
