Annual Corporate sponsorships offer visibility and advertising options for your organization through our monthly newsletter, website and public events (Young Eagles, DEAA, LOEFI, etc.) as follows:<img class="aligncenter wp-image-4249" src="https://eaa179.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/2023_Sponsor_Levels.jpg" alt="Corporate Sponsor Levels" width="500" height="240" />

EAA Chapter 179 relies on membership dues, individual donations, and corporate sponsorships to fund our educational activities including our aviation scholarship program, the <a href="https://eaa179.org/loefi/">Land of Enchantment Fly-In (LOEFI),</a> Young Eagles rallies, aircraft projects, and the Double Eagle Aviation Academy (DEAA).  In 2021, the 179 Board of Directors committed to a long-desired goal to secure a dedicated chapter facility at Double Eagle II Airport.

In 2022, we acquired a workshop hangar to support our aircraft build project and serve as a center of activity on the airport. While a terrific asset to support builder focused activities of our chapter, our long term vision remains: to secure a larger aviation education center to base our activities, enabling us to expand our offerings in support of the aviation community.
