The mission of SFC’s 25by25 initiative is to achieve 25% female representation at SFC by 2025. We are dedicated to creating a space where women can pursue their passions and reach their highest potential in the industry.
On average, just 5% of pilots are women.
And it’s not because they don’t like it. Women of all backgrounds often set their eyes to skies, but there’s a barrier in being such a small percentage, so we’ve set out to empower them.
25% women pilots at SFC by 2025.
At SFC, we know we need somewhere to start – 25 by 25. That means 25% women pilots at SFC by the year 2025. 25 by 25 is our vision to break down barriers by empowering more women than ever to become successful pilots. This initiative is more than just a numbers game – it’s our mission to create a space where aspiring female pilots can dream without limits.
25by25 is ultimately bridging the gender gap by breaking the ideology that ‘pilot’ has a gender associated with it. By educating young kids and empowering them ALL with stories of support and encouragement, we will grow our female percentages, but more importantly, gain more fellow aviators to the aviation industry as a whole and start to make progress in bridging that gap.
