✈️ Help Isabella Take Flight Toward Her Dream of Becoming an Airline Pilot
From the time she was six years old, Isabella has dreamed of becoming a pilot. Growing up just minutes from the Boeing factory in Everett, she was fascinated by airplanes and inspired by the people who built and flew them.
Over the years, Isabella has pursued every opportunity to learn about aviation, participating in Boeing Family Day events, Alaska Airlines community programs, Women in Aviation activities, Young Eagles flights, and Civil Air Patrol. She has connected with professional pilots, explored different training paths, and even had the chance to briefly take the controls of her grand-uncle’s Cessna—an experience that confirmed her passion for flying.
After researching military, university, and independent training options, Isabella chose to begin her flight training locally at Rainier Flight Services in Everett. She plans to start immediately after graduating high school so she can begin building flight hours during the summer flying season.
Isabella is already working nearly full-time while finishing high school and is saving for training costs herself. She is actively applying for scholarships, and her family is helping support her journey. However, flight training is a major investment, often costing $60,000–$80,000 or more from initial training through advanced certifications.
This fundraiser was created for friends, family, and supporters who would like to help Isabella achieve her goal of becoming a commercial airline pilot. Our goal is to raise $10,000 to help cover the early costs of training, including flight hours, ground school, equipment, and testing fees.
Every donation, share, and word of encouragement helps move Isabella one step closer to the cockpit.
Thank you for supporting her journey and helping her take flight.
