Yet the aviation industry still lacks women in technical and analytical positions, a trend that is seen throughout the aviation sector.

In celebration of Women’s History Month, JetBlue would like to bring attention to the great work being done by the Rwandan Girls Initiative (RGI) whose mission is to educate and empower girls of Rwanda to reach their highest potential. JetBlue was recently introduced to RGI through our inflight entertainment partners - The Nantucket Project (TNP). Last fall, the JetBlue Foundation helped fly several women from RGI to Nantucket for the TNP annual gathering.

As International Women’s Day (IWD) continues to grow in momentum year over year, so too does company involvement. While in the past, many campaigns were short-lived or focused on more narrow issues like self-esteem and confidence, the conversation – and resulting programs – are shifting. Over the past year, movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp have evolved the dialogue, prompting brands to take on weightier elements of women’s rights. This year’s #PressForChange theme encouraged brands to forgo flashy campaigns and instead focus on creating programs that can make a lasting impact.
