STEM Program

The Air & Space Forces Association (AFA) Wright Memorial Chapter (WMC) proudly supports and facilitates partnerships with the K-12 educational community and increases student awareness and excitement in all fields of science, technology, engineering and math, as well as aviation and aerospace.  


STEM Grant Program

The AFA WMC works with the Greater Dayton Area schools to support and advocate for their STEM programs.  We provide grants to either the school or individual teachers to support STEM – with a focus on socioeconomically disadvantaged schools, teachers, and students. Grant submissions may be made by the school directly to AFA WMC, or in response to our "STEM Grant Call" - normally distributed in October of every year. Presentations are typically made at the school, with ‘sponsor’ support as their time permits.

For more information, contact our VP of Education, Mr. Carl “Shof” Shofner, cshofner@afadaytonwright.org.
