Wisconsin Air Force Academy Parents Association (WAFAPA)

Proudly supporting our cadets at the United States Air Force Academy
 
 
 
AFA Parents Club Logo
Welcome to the official Air Force Academy parents club of Wisconsin. Our members are parents of current or graduated cadets.
Our mission is to provide support to the parents and their cadets while at the Air Force Academy.
Parents Clubs exist because the Service Academy experience is not like any other college. If you are not a Service Academy graduate, you simply cannot understand it.
Parents of cadets and graduates don’t understand what it’s like to be a cadet, but they do understand what it’s like to be the parent of a cadet.
Parents Clubs exist to pass that experience on to new parents so they can learn faster, make fewer mistakes, and be more supportive.
We are a 501(c)(3) organization so your contributions are tax deductible.
