Air for Airiel Scholarships

Through the Air for Airiel Foundation Scholarship we aim to inspire and empower students with exceptional abilities to attend college or life skill training programs, underrepresented students requiring financial assistance to attend nursing school, and nontraditional students who are furthering their education while caring for loved ones with exceptional abilities. The Air for Airiel Foundation provides academic and book scholarships to:

  • Underrepresented students experiencing financial difficulties and possess the desire to pursue nursing as a major in college.

  • Ethnic minority students who demonstrate gifted abilities (physical, mental, or learning disability) who are entering a two or four-year accredited post-secondary institution for the first time.

March for Babies

We support the March of Dimes and the March for Babies because of the support that they provide to families dealing with premature birth of children and the work that they do to find solutions and advocate for the health of moms and babies. We have started supporting the March for Babies when Airiel was born and will continue to do so for as long as God allows us to. We March for Airiel who was born at 25 weeks gestation and lived 3.5 beautiful years. We March for Airiel who endured many trials in her life, but always kept a smile on her face and brought joy to all she met. We March for Airiel because of the blessing that she was and continues to be in our lives. Team Air for Airiel is Stepping Up for Babies and Moms around the world. Join us for the virtual March for Babies and help us:

  • Research for COVID-19 treatments ensuring they are inclusive and safe for pregnant and lactating women.

  • Fundraising and advocacy efforts needed to help those families impacted by COVID-19.

  • Resources and training for doctors and nurses in the ICU and NICU who are fighting tirelessly for moms and babies every day.

  • Development of educational materials for moms-to-be and families about what they should know to protect themselves.

During this time of urgency given the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for March for Babies to Step Up! its support is even more critical. Babies can’t wait. Moms can’t wait. 

Thank you for Stepping Up for moms and babies!
