Feb. 21—A $50,000 donation to the Southern Illinois University School of Aviation will assist students in the program with scholarships and with outreach activities.
Three programs — aviation flight, aviation management and aviation technologies — will each receive $10,000 in student scholarship funds. The remainder of the donation will be used to help students attend conferences, fund aviation-related student organizations and provide for outreach programs.
Since 2016, Boeing and its employees have given more than $344,000 to the program through the Southern Illinois University Foundation.
