Nella  can use YOUR support for 2018

In order to PRESERVE AND GROW HER WASP LEGACY 

  • Provide rides to WASP as she travels on tour – $250 each.
    • Add WASP signatures to the luggage compartment – PRICELESS.
  • Appear at WASP Homecoming, May 2018, at the National WASP Museum, Avenger Field, Sweetwater, TX –  approximately $1,500
    • Provide ride for a WASP from Dallas to SweetWater as part of Homecoming appearance – PRICELESS

 

SHE WILL NEED REPAIR and MAINTENANCE

  • Building a reserve for her next overhaul that could cost tens of thousands
  • Funds for her annual, her insurance, and CAF Fees, which total approximately $23,000 per year.

OUTREACH EDUCATION takes time

and MATERIALS

           

Volunteer your time if you can, or support the effort with your dollars, that buy items for the students to use for remembering their learning as well as for producing handouts, signs promotions.
