The International Society of Transport Aircraft Trading (ISTAT) Foundation has opened the application period for the 2026 Humanitarian Aid Grants, aimed at projects that use "aviation" resources to respond to humanitarian crises, improve access to healthcare, and deliver life-saving aid.
Supported Activities
Within the scope of the program, humanitarian aid projects with a clear aviation component (such as airplanes, helicopters, air cargo, etc.) at their core will be supported. The air transport of medical supplies or emergency kits (such as water purification kits, tents, etc.), air ambulance operations, search and rescue logistics, and air-supported medical missions to hard-to-reach areas are evaluated within this scope.
Who can apply?
Institutions wishing to apply to the program must meet the following criteria:
- Be registered as a non-profit organization (association, foundation, etc.).
- Have been officially established and operational for at least two years prior to the application date.
- Have a clear humanitarian mission and capacity directly supported by aviation-related activities.
- (For religious organizations) Be inclusive of all groups, not limiting services to a specific faith group.
Institutions must complete their applications by May 29, 2026, at the latest. Final results will be announced on July 31, 2026, following the evaluation process.
