A Ride with purpose
SUPPORTING THE ENDEAVOUR SCHOLARSHIP
The Al Worden Endeavour Scholarship is more than just a program – it is a legacy of inspiration, international collaboration, and boundless opportunity for the next generation of explorers.
Since its launch, Endeavour has transformed the lives of students and teachers worldwide, empowering them with hands-on STEM experiences and a global network of mentors. This year’s ceremony will take place at the heart of the Paris Air Show – the Paris Air Lab – on Friday, June 20, where we call upon industry leaders, government officials, and media from around the world to champion the French Endeavour Team and invest in their future.
The French and American flags, proudly displayed in the USA Partnership Pavilion all week, will take the stage once more at this ceremony—a symbol of the unbreakable bond between nations and the enduring spirit of exploration.
Funds raised through sponsorship will benefit The Endeavour Scholarship, directly offsetting the
costs for youth who attend this Space Camp program.
