Youth Bursary Program

The money is to be used on flying activities, not for membership dues, with the goal of maximizing flying training.  

To apply for the bursary program, youth members at SOSA should submit a written request to the SOSA Club Secretary by end of April each year. If bursaries are still available after that, applications can be submitted by end of June.

Contact us

The request should be in essay format and include the following information:

✓ Background Information about yourself
✓ Why you are applying for the bursary
✓ Your flying goals for the season
✓ How you are prepared to help the club

​In exchange for receiving the bursary, the recipient(s) are expected to contribute 50 hours of volunteer work at SOSA in the year in which they are awarded the bursary. The funds will be released to the recipient(s) at an hourly rate as their work logs are reported to the Club Treasurer via their mentor.
Once reviewed and approved by SOSA board of directors, the applications are submitted for SAC Youth Bursary Program review. SAC application can be downloaded from here.
