ACAA Charitable Foundation

Enhancing Travelers’ Airport Experience, Enriching Our Community

The mission of the Allegheny County Airport Authority Charitable Foundation is to enhance the experience of travelers at our airports and to work with communities located closest to our airports to better the lives of their residents.  Within this mission, our focus will be on:

  • Engaging with communities around the airports to help in areas of education, such as post-secondary aviation scholarships.
  • Any other charitable purpose responding to needs as they arise.

Foundation Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the ACAA Charitable Foundation, Executive Committee of the ACAA Charitable Foundation, or a representative of the ACAA Charitable Foundation Board, initially reviews each grant request to ensure the organization meets the minimum criteria. Thereafter, the full ACAA Charitable Foundation Board of Directors will evaluate the requests from organizations and vote on final approval of all grant applications.
