Created in loving memory of Coleen P. Davis, this scholarship honors her unwavering faith, compassion, and commitment to helping others rise. Each award supports students pursuing education and training in aviation, leadership, and service — empowering them to carry forward her legacy of excellence, courage, and heart.
The Coleen P. Davis Legacy Scholarship will be proudly housed at York College (CUNY), where Coleen’s spirit of perseverance and purpose continues to uplift future generations of women in aviation and beyond.
Your gift helps us open doors for women who are ready to soar, establish this scholarship permanently at York College — and ensures that Coleen’s legacy continues to inspire for generations to come.
