Challenge Air is a brand that was created with the purpose of changing the perception of children with special needs through the gift of flight. Since 1993, the brand has been dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of these children. With a network of 3,500 volunteers spread across the nation, Challenge Air continues to grow through its exciting events called Fly Days.

The brand aims to eliminate the belief that children with special needs are limited. Instead, it empowers them to reach their full potential by giving them the opportunity to find courage within themselves and build self-esteem. Challenge Air provides an unforgettable experience that opens doors to possibilities, showing these children that if they can fly a plane, they can do anything.

The program goals of Challenge Air are to improve the quality of life for children and families with special needs, inspire them about their future, educate them about the aviation industry, promote civic and community engagement, create an environment for peer interaction, and provide information about local organizational resources for families with special needs. If you want to bring Challenge Air to your community, you can submit an application that outlines why you believe the program is a good fit. Applications are reviewed bi-annually, and if chosen, the terms will be formalized in a letter of understanding.
