Founding Directors
The Founding Directors of the Air Force Academy Endowment are a special group of individuals, who by their service and generosity have committed to securing the future of our Academy. In particular, their leadership giving allows the Endowment to operate in a highly unique manner. That is, we charge no fees and take no deductions from restricted donations for fundraising costs. This approach, enabled by our Founding Directors, sets the Endowment apart from most university foundations.
