BYOP - Proud Sponsorships

Supporting Children's Foster Care
BYOP is proud to be a sponsor of Operations Open Ams and being "The Official Time Keeper" of Silks Bash. This fund raising event is organized every year by Operation Open Arms, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping children in need of foster care. What an incredible and meaningful experience to show support while sharing the powerful journey and inspiration behind creating Be Your Own Pilot brand watches. Proud to represent a mission rooted in purpose, resilience, and vision. Thank you, Operation Open Arms, for the amazing work you do and the lives you continue to impact!

Supporting First Responders
BYOP is proud to be a sponsor of Cornerstone Retreat Center, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping first responders and their families respond to the challenges of PTSD. It is an honor to support Cornerstone Retreat Center's incredible charity events, helping raise funds for those who have dedicated their lives to serving others. I am also grateful for the opportunity to share my personal experiences in law enforcement—experiences that helped inspire the creation of the Be Your Own Pilot watch brand and its mission to encourage others to chart their own course. A heartfelt thank you to Cornerstone Retreat Center for the life-changing work you do in supporting first responders. I'm proud to stand behind your mission and be a part of making a difference.

Supporting Children's Foster Care
✈️ We're excited to announce that we're in the planning stages of launching the very first BYOP Flight Club for kids! BYOP is proud to be partnering with Arbor Circle to provide children in foster care with an unforgettable introduction to aviation through flights generously donated by Young Eagles Chapter 211. This initiative is especially meaningful because the inspiration behind BYOP began with my own childhood experiences in foster care, where aviation encouraged me to dream bigger and helped shape the vision for the Be Your Own Pilot brand. The BYOP Flight Club is about more than flying—it's about inspiring kids to believe in themselves, explore new possibilities, and realize they have the ability to chart their own future. A special thank you to Arbor Circle and Young Eagles Chapter 211 for helping bring this vision to life. We can't wait to share more as plans continue to take flight! Be Your Own Pilot. Every journey begins with believing you can. 🛩️
