INVESTING IN THE NEXT GENERATION
Mission Statement: We build tools that change the world!
APEX Aerospace is a for impact STEM workforce development program dedicated to equipping youth with practical STEM skills through the construction of experimental amateur-built (EAB) airplanes in high schools across the United States.
Apex Aerospace aims to bridge the gap between education and industry by equipping students with real-world skills, fostering interest in STEM careers and cultivating the next generation of aerospace innovators. By building experimental aircraft under expert guidance, students gain practical knowledge, teamwork experience and a profound sense of accomplishment.
We strive to become the leading youth aviation education program in the United States, revolutionizing STEM education by creating a network of student-built aircraft programs that empower and inspire youth to pursue aerospace careers.
Students learn skills in STEM aerospace by building experimental aircraft and restoring vintage aircraft. We will teach sheet metal, electrical, basic hydraulics, and composites, just to start.
Vision
To be the leading organization in youth aerospace education, empowering students to reach their full potential through innovation, collaboration and hands-on learning to prepare students for professional success in the aerospace industry.
What We Do
Apex Aerospace brings tech education back into the classroom, with a hands on high school aircraft build program. This nationwide program assists schools with building aircraft in their classroom. APEX Aerospace trains the volunteer mentor staff and manages the aircraft build project.
Corporate sponsorships and Donations from the community fund aircraft projects, tools and operational expenses.
The Problem
In our mission to build tools that change the world, we are increasingly limited by:
Outdated or insufficient resources
Lack of manpower or specialized expertise
Limited access to materials, tools, or infrastructure
Low public awareness of the work being done and the lives it impacts
The gap between what we can do and what we need to do is growing. To bridge that gap, we need more than funding — we need community.
The Vision
Imagine a world where:
Local businesses provide essential tools, services, or mentorship to creators and innovators.
Volunteers with skills in mechanics, design, or education lend their time and knowledge.
Organizations and individuals amplify our mission by sharing our story.
Leaders and partners collaborate with us on long-term projects that drive change.
That’s not just possible — it’s already beginning. Now we want to invite more people to the table!
