Meet Our Donors
Giving to the Air Force Association impacts not only the United States Air Force and the Air Force Family, but also our donors. Below are a few of the many stories from donors who have been changed by AFA and why they chose to make a contribution.

We want our “extended Air Force family” to benefit in the future from our decision to include AFA in our living trusts.” Joe Shriber is pictured with former AFA President Don Peterson |

| William W. Spruance
Giving a young person the opportunity to expand their horizons and set goals beyond their reach is the basis for the Spruances' sustained giving to the Foundation. William and Eunice Spruance regularly make contributions to support scholarships and education programs for cadets from Embry Riddle University. The Aerospace Education Foundation is pleased to acknowledge one of its Trustees for sustained support and contributions. |
