By inspiring young leaders to trade textbooks for life experiences, The Flight School is developing the super-powers every disrupter needs: imagination, audacity, and the courage to look up — and leap!

Richard Branson

Founder, Virgin Group

Rarely do I find a school designing for scale from Day One. The Flight School is rewiring how an entire generation leads — inducing network effects of positive change at a scale that our future demands.

Sanjay Purohit

CEO & Chief Curator, Centre For Exponential Change

In an era of profound disconnection, The Flight School offers what we’re all craving: sacred spaces to explore life's deep questions in community. I wish every emerging adult on the planet had access to this life (and world) changing opportunity!

Casper ter Kuile

Co-founder, Sacred Design Lab & The Nearness

As our global challenges intensify, The Flight School equips emerging leaders with exactly what they need: transformative experiences that shape how they see themselves, their communities, and their role in building a more just world.

Dr. Musimbi Kanyoro

Chair, United World Colleges (UWC)

The Flight School Fellows give me profound hope for the future of happiness. These young leaders understand that true fulfillment comes not from individual achievement, but from using their gifts to help others flourish.  It's exactly the paradigm shift our world needs now!

Stephanie Harrison

Founder, The New Happy

The Flight School offers donors a rare opportunity: by supporting young leaders at a pivotal juncture, we're seeding societal impact that will ripple across generations. 

Cecilia Conrad

CEO, Lever for Change

As a society we don’t teach transition intelligence – but there’s nothing more important.  My work guides people toward wisdom at midlife.  Abby and The Flight School are filling in another crucial gap — helping young people align with their purpose before setting their life’s course. 

Chip Conley

Founder & CEO, Modern Elder Academy

The Flight School addresses one of society's highest priorities: ensuring the rising generation lives into their values — and their potential to shape a better future.
