Your Gift Creates Opportunity

Your tax-deductible donation helps us:

  • Open the skies to aspiring pilots of all ages.

  • Provide free, life-changing STEM and aviation training that empowers young people to become the next generation of aviation leaders.

  • Build a strong, sustainable future for the Truckee Tahoe Soaring Association and the aviation community we serve.

TTSA is a  501c3 non-profit organization, EIN 47-2856204, all donations to TTSA are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by the law.

Your Gift Makes a Lasting Difference

Your fully tax-deductible donation helps the Truckee Tahoe Soaring Association remain a vibrant, world-class gliderport while inspiring the next generation through aviation and STEM education. Together, we are preserving the joy of soaring, expanding access to flight, and developing tomorrow's pilots, engineers, and aviation leaders.

We rely on charitable donations and grants to make our Youth STEM Soaring Academy possible. These life-changing programs are offered free of charge or at minimal cost, ensuring that financial barriers do not prevent motivated young people from pursuing aviation. Donations also help support our facilities, aircraft, equipment, maintenance, and the safe operation of our gliderport.

While revenue from scenic rides, flight instruction, aerotows, memberships, tie-downs, and other services helps fund daily operations, it does not fully cover our growing operational and capital expenses. Your generosity helps bridge that gap and ensures TTSA can continue serving our community for generations to come.
