Flying High with Compassion:
Genuine Human and Angel Flight Central
Free Flights for People in Need
At Genuine Human, we believe in the power of community and compassion to change lives. That's why we're shining a spotlight on Angel Flight Central (AFC), a remarkable non-profit organization that embodies these values every day. With just a small team and the big hearts of volunteer pilots like Scott Lauridsen, AFC provides around 2,500 free flights each year, supporting individuals across 10 Midwest states to access crucial medical care and special experiences they otherwise couldn't.
"It's not just about the flights. It's about the connections, the stories, and the lives we touch. Every journey is a new chapter of hope." Scott Lauridsen, volunteer pilot at Angel Flight Central
Scott Lauridsen, one of the dedicated pilots, shares, "It's not just about the flights. It's about the connections, the stories, and the lives we touch. Every journey is a new chapter of hope." Scott's commitment has seen him forming lasting bonds, like with the siblings he flew to camp every summer, earning him the affectionate nickname 'Flat Tire Guy' after an unexpected adventure on the runway.
Angel Flight Central's impact is profound. With every dollar donated, $4.61 in services is provided, thanks to the generosity of pilots who volunteer their time, aircraft, and fuel. But the backbone of this incredible service is the logistical support from AFC's staff, ensuring every flight is safe, efficient, and tailored to the needs of its passengers.
The partnership with Southwest Airlines extends AFC's reach, enabling long-distance travel for those facing challenging medical journeys. Whether it's cancer treatments, special camps for kids, or emergency relief efforts, AFC stands ready to lift people above their circumstances.
Genuine Human is committed to supporting AFC's mission. A donation of $2,500 can coordinate 14 flights, offering a lifeline to those in need. We invite our community to join us in this cause. Your support can help sustain the vital software and operational costs that make these flights possible, ensuring that AFC continues to soar high in service and compassion.
Let's come together to support Angel Flight Central and volunteers like Scott. Every donation, big or small, writes a story of hope in the skies. Join us in making a difference.
