At the Military Aviation Museum, we take pride in our commitment to community outreach by extending support to qualified nonprofit organizations within the Hampton Roads area. Additionally, aviation organizations beyond Hampton Roads may also be eligible for consideration. To qualify for our charitable donations, organizations must align with our values, and be working to support history, aviation, families, or education.
Our donation policy includes the provision of up to one Family 4 Pack (admitting 2 adults & 2 children) per year per eligible organization. While all requests are carefully reviewed, we regret that due to limited staffing, we may not be able to fulfill every request. Furthermore, acceptance of a donation in one year does not guarantee approval in subsequent years.
Please note that behind-the-scenes tours, special events, airshows, summer camps, educational programming, and plane rides are not covered under the donation program and should not be requested.
We do not extend complimentary pass donations to individuals or individual families, for-profit entities, or political campaigns/fundraisers.
Considering the volume of requests we receive, we ask for a minimum of 60 days to process and review each request. Donated tickets will be sent via U.S. mail. Please ensure all requests are submitted in writing directly by the organization, on the organization's letterhead, and not through third-party channels. Due to staffing constraints, we do not entertain phone solicitations, and requests submitted less than 60 days prior to the event will not be considered.
It's important to note that submission of a request does not guarantee a donation. We advise thorough completion of the donation request form and confirmation of submission before proceeding.
To be considered for our support, please adhere to the following instructions:
- Complete the Donation Request Form below
- Attach the organization’s formal letter of request for donation on the organization’s letterhead
- Attach your organization's tax letter
