Wings Over the Rockies opened its doors on December 1, 1994 as a small, volunteer-run museum passionate about sharing aviation history with the public. Today, Colorado's Official Air & Space Museum is dedicated to not only preserving history, but also to preparing tomorrow's aerospace professionals for the workforce.
Our donors are vital to sustaining our work of educating aviation and space enthusiasts of all ages, and inspiring innovation in our state and beyond. Your gift helps us build the future of aerospace in Colorado!
Sustain the Wings this Colorado Gives Day!
“Sustineo Alas” means “I sustain the Wings.” When you donate to Wings Over the Rockies, you'll join the community of supporters fueling aerospace education in Colorado for 30 years and counting.
Your support helps the next generation of aviation leaders achieve their dreams through expanded, hands-on aerospace programs. Wings graduates become commercial pilots, engineers and drone pilots, proving the sky is no limit.
Your gift of any amount will sustain transformative education enrichment programs, engaging exhibits, historic aircraft restoration, and more. Plus, all donations made through December 10th will help us unlock additional funding through the Colorado Gives Foundation and FirstBank!
In honor of our 30th anniversary, when you give $360 or more or commit to monthly donations of $30, we’ll send you our exclusive Sustineo Alas hat as a token of our appreciation. Show off how you sustain the Wings...in style!
