Inspiring Ideas. Igniting Action. Impacting Locally.

The Airport Community Foundation (ACF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and enhancing local communities surrounding the metropolitan New York airports. The foundation focuses on programs that promote aviation and airport workforce development, education and training, and local quality-of-life initiatives. It works closely with airport stakeholders, civic associations, and local authorities to identify and address the community’s needs and provide help wherever possible.

Since 2023, ACF has donated more than $125,000 to local charities and airport organizations.

The Airport Community Foundation is managed by a volunteer committee of airport leaders raising funds to assist local airport associations in promoting workforce development, educational opportunities, and advancing business growth while creating connections within the local communities that our airports service.

We aim to ensure that airports are seen as valuable resources for the local communities, providing employment and business opportunities and serving as invested partners in helping these communities access the resources necessary to enhance their quality of life.
