The Bede family announced the formation of a non-profit foundation to help introduce youth to the experimental aviation community.
“We are excited to announce the formation of The Bede Family Foundation, a 501-C non-profit. This foundation was designed to further the education of today’s youth. We deliver aircraft kits to schools and/or organizations that meet our criteria. Our hope is that this may inspire our future aeronautical engineers, aircraft mechanics, and pilots. The foundation accepts cash and aircraft donations. If you donate an aircraft we can issue you a certified appraisal that can be used for tax deduction purposes. We then, salvage or part out the aircrafts with the proceeds going to the foundation.”
