Angel Flight New England

ENERGY IN ACTION - EPISODE 106 Angel Flight New England Kirk Walters and Larry Camerlin of Angel Flight New England are here to share about the organization, how they can assist patients who need to travel for medical care and the other resources they assist with. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS What is Angel Flight New England's mission? We are a nonprofit organization with a mission of flying people, free of charge, for medical care. We carry out our mission with the help of 450 volunteer pilots, our commercial airline partners— Jet Blue and Cape Air, dedicated staff and generous donors. Through the support we receive, we ensure no one is deprived of life-saving medical care. We want to be part of the treatment team, bringing people hope, letting them know they're cared for and embraced whether they take one flight or one thousand flights with us. What if someone is located outside of New England? We have pilot organizations throughout the United States, so if we can't arrange a flight, we connect with our partners and turn to our other resources. Through a pharmaceutical partner in the rare disease community, we have been able to provide international service. What resources do people have when they arrive at their destination? We rely on Earth Angels— our ground crew. Where we already have volunteers available, we arrange for them to meet patients at the airport and drive them to the medical facility. If we don't have a local volunteer available, we will assist them with lining up ground transportation. They can connect with our mission flight coordinators 24 hours a day.
