Where Your Donations Go: How Medical Flights Are Saving Lives One Mile at a Time
The Hidden Costs of Childhood Cancer: How Travel Expenses Burden Families Seeking Treatment
Every donation tells a story — and for families facing pediatric cancer, your generosity means more than you know. Nonprofit flight services are a lifeline for children who need specialized treatment far from home. Whether it’s a cross-country flight to a top cancer center or a regional trip for follow-up care, your support funds more than travel — it provides hope.
Often its the only viable way to get a child to life-saving treatment quickly and safely. For families already overwhelmed by medical bills and emotional stress, these no-cost flights remove a major barrier to care. Your donation could be the reason a child with cancer makes it to a clinical trial, a surgery, or a round of chemotherapy that gives them a fighting chance.
If you’re looking for a way to directly affect a child in need’s life, sponsoring a flight or hosting a fundraiser in your community can have a large impact. Every mile flown is a mile toward healing — and it continues because of your support. For kids fighting cancer, these flights are more than transportation — they’re a lifeline to hope, healing, and time.
Helping Wings is dedicated to lifting the burden of distance for children who need life-saving medical care. We fund flights with the help of volunteer pilots to make sure no child misses essential treatment due to travel costs or distance. Together, we fly toward hope and healing.
