Supporting local communities is one of Duncan Aviation’s core values. One way we invest in our communities is through the children of our team members. Each year, Duncan Aviation advances the futures of 20 students through the Karen K. Duncan Scholarship program. Each scholarship winner will receive up to $4,000 for his or her college education—$1,000 a semester for up to two years.
An independent committee reviews applicants’ essays and assigns point values to them. Students also earn points for academic achievement, leadership, citizenship, career goals and extracurricular activities.
