The Air Force Academy Foundation raises private funds to help enhance and develop Academy programs that would not otherwise be fully funded by the government.

Your gifts that support the Academy help our exceptional cadets and graduates reach new heights by supporting cadet programs, providing vital services for graduates and advancing the Academy’s strategic needs and capital projects.

HAVE YOU SEEN OUR CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS?

A fun fact: if you measured all of the original external caulking used on the U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel, it would stretch more than 30 miles. The Academy added caulking soon after the Chapel’s construction as a cost-effective attempt to stop water leaks. This interesting fact and many others were shared during a media tour of Academy infrastructure projects — with AOG and Foundation assistance, about half a billion dollars’ worth.

CHECK OUT CHECKPOINTS MAGAZINE

Checkpoints magazine is the Association of Graduates' signature communications piece. From its humble beginnings as a black and white news print in 1965 to the award-winning publication you are reading today, the magazine has evolved into a visual showcase of USAFA. Yet despite its evolutionary track across the decades, this publication still seeks the same objective that it did at the time of its inception: to tell the Academy and graduate stories.
