The AFA Chapter 116 presented five students with monetary awards for the coming 2019 Fall College semester. A total of $10,000 was distributed among the students with the generosity of SAFE Credit Union.
From the IVY League to local colleges, these students have assistance with tuition, books, materials, and fees associated with their schools.
Pictured are three of the five students with their families, SAFE, and AFA officers at the awards ceremony in June 2019, at the Aerospace Museum of California in North Highlands.
