Mission Statement

Raise funds to distribute to flight attendants in need for illness, injury or disability. We raise our funds primarily through payroll deductions. We have only 1 paid employee, the rest of us are all flight attendant volunteers. Our administrative costs are only 7%. We are very proud of that. This event is our major fundraiser of the year.
