----------------------------------------
On May 31, Angel Flight NE celebrated the completion of our 14th year of providing journeys of healing and hope.
Since Angel Flight Northeast's first flight in 1996, our mission coordinators have scheduled more than 45,000 flights and our 1,000+ Volunteer Pilots have flown over 8 million miles providing nearly 60,000 patients and their families free air transportation to medical care. As well, our 200+ Earth Angels are there to greet the patients and their families with open arms and transport them to and from their destinations. All of this would not be possible without the dedication of our Volunteer Pilots and Earth Angels along with the generosity of our donors and supporters.
Below are some of those that the Angel Flight Northeast organization has helped.
Alexis "Lexie" ~ 6 years old (Esophageal Atresia)
Joe ~ 7 years old (Brain Lesion with Seizures)
A Note from Joe's Dad, Dennis: "Every time I think of Angel Flight Northeast, I think of how grateful we are that you do what you do. When we were both mentally and financially exhausted and had lost all hope that we could get our son, Joe, the care he needed, Angel Flight Northeast came to our rescue. They not only made Joe feel special, but without their help, we could not have been able to get him the care he needed. With their help and that of the doctors, we have been able to get his 100+ seizures a day under control. As a father, you feel the responsibility of making sure you get your children help when they need it. We were losing all hope until Angel Flight Northeast came into our lives. You will always have a large spot in our hearts and your pilots should know how important they are and the contribution they make to so many lives."
