Programs: The nscfl is a non-profit corporation composed of private individuals representing industry, government, the department of defense, regional educational institutions, and the public - all of whom share a commitment to increasing public awareness of america's aerospace programs. We do this by hosting a number of events each year that include topical luncheons (10 per year, approximately 300 - 400 per event), networking socials (2 per year, 200-300 per event), a major evening event in october (400 per event) and our annual signature event in april, the black-tie kurt debus award dinner (400 per event).
nscfl is also the major sponsor for brevard space week, where we provide the majority of the expenses associated with bringing every sixth grader in public and private schools in the brevard county school district to kennedy space center in support of stem (science, technology, engineering and math) development. Approximately 7,000 students, teachers, and chaperones participated in 2017.
