The Commemorative Air Force will again participate in this year’s North Texas Giving Day, a one-day online giving event for people to support their favorite charities in the North Texas region. Donations to the CAF will be designated for the CAF Red Tail Squadron’s educational outreach programs.

But it’s just one day – Thursday, September 14th from 6 a. m. to midnight! Join us to honor the history and legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen.

While gifts of any size help, every gift of $25 or more made to the CAF through https://northtexasgivingday.org/npo/commemorative-air-force qualifies for a percentage of bonus funds – $2.5 million in 2016 – making the impact of your gift even greater.

To make a donation, simply go to https://northtexasgivingday.org/npo/commemorative-air-force.

A gift of any size will help support youth learning to RISE ABOVE. And please share this information with family and friends who might be interested!

Thank you!

 

The CAF Red Tail Squadron is a volunteer-driven organization dedicated to educating audiences across the country about the history and legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen, America’s first black military pilots and their support personnel. Learn more at www.redtail.org.
