Air Cadet / Youth Fund

The purpose of the Air Cadet / Youth Fund is to provide annual gliding and soaring training bursaries for Air Cadets and Youth members of the Soaring Association of Canada. The bursaries shall be available to any SAC Air Cadet or Youth member according to the terms of the SAC Youth Bursary Program.
