NAASF Foundation

The North American Airline Ski Federation Foundation was created in 1983 to provide financial assistance in the form of scholarships, grants or gifts to deserving individuals and organizations involved in competitive skiing programs. The Foundation operates under IRS 501(c)(3) status.

Throughout the years the North American Airline Ski Federation has raised over $120,000 to benefit junior ski programs, junior skiers, and many individual charities through its foundation. NAASF raises these funds at the airline ski weeks held throughout the winter at various ski areas. This fund raising is an important part of the activities at each airline ski week.
