New brochures and mailing

You should have seen our new tri-fold brochures this week, compliments of a grant from the American Legion Child Welfare Foundation. They have been extremely well received. Thank you very much to those who sent donations. We will put those funds to good use!

Our volunteers in our Care Traffic Control Center have been mailing these out to healthcare facilities around our service area, educating new social workers about the fantastic service our charity provides. They have also landed in a number of the FBOs around the area so we can spread the word and find the next generation of pilots to help our program continue.

These are the very special pilots that volunteered to take one or more of our many weekly missions. Thank you!!

Good Evening, Bob!

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you and express how much Diane and I enjoyed flying with you on our return back to Stuart.

Your personal commitment to the Angel Flight organization is quite worthy of high praise. Your volunteer work supporting flights of mercy and compassion benefit so many, making a profound difference in the lives of those of us who are going through extremely difficult times.

Please know that your enthusiasm for the volunteer work you do and your genuine kindness for my companion and I did not go unnoticed.

I am extremely grateful for all the help from everyone at Angel Flight Southeast.

With My Respect and Admiration,

Carole Bagnasco

P.S. KEEP WINGIN IT!
