The Alaska Airlines Foundation aims to support young people, particularly those in underserved communities in regions where Alaska Airlines operates, such as Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, and Washington. By partnering with community organizations, the foundation seeks to empower and equip the next generation with the skills and opportunities necessary for their success, focusing on career opportunities, mentorships, and leadership development.
The Alaska Airlines Foundation grants are designed to support programs that assist young people, aged approximately 10 to 20, in exploring careers, developing soft skills, and gaining educational and job training. These grants prioritize initiatives that offer career connected learning experiences, mentorships, and preparations for advanced degrees or certifications. With grants ranging from $5,000 to $20,000, the foundation aims to fund programs that demonstrate a clear vision for equipping young leaders and show potential for significant impact. Eligible programs should operate within the foundation's focus states and align with its goals of enhancing career opportunities and skills development for youth. Funding decisions are influenced by factors such as the number of individuals served, geographic reach, and the program's budget, with an expectation that funds be utilized within one year of the award.
