AerCap makes regular donations to the Foundation of the International Society of Aircraft Traders (ISTAT), in particular to ISTAT’s scholarship programme.

The ISTAT Foundation fosters interest in and creates opportunities in the global aviation community by providing grants, scholarships, internships and humanitarian aid worldwide.

The ISTAT Scholarship Programme helps young people develop potential careers in aviation by offering scholarships directly to college-level students who are academically qualified and in need of financial support to complete their studies.
