As we approach the New Year and take a moment to reflect on where we’ve been and our goals for the future, we wanted to thank YOU for being the cornerstone of our important work.

Your support has been critical to help share the history and legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen and inspire people to RISE ABOVE their own challenges. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of people around the country while honoring these important American icons.

While you are giving gifts to your loved ones this holiday season, we hope you will remember the CAF Red Tail Squadron in your end of year charitable contributions. As always, your donation is tax deductible and will be judiciously used to support our educational outreach efforts.

From the entire CAF Red Tail Squadron team, we wish you a peaceful, healthy and joy-filled holiday and New Year!
