Medi-vac Flights
A 1-hour flight can save a life!
The basic operating cost for one hour of flying is $460 USD (approx. $655 CAD).
Your donation for one hour of flying can save the life of someone needing acute medical care, including providing for the safe delivery of a baby who's mother is in distress and requires a cesarean section.
Our base in Bombardopolis is located near a small, rural hospital called Hospital Evangelique de Bombardopolis (HEB), and we regularly transport patients from HEB who require further care at larger medical centres, including ones equipped with an operating room.
Many of our medi-vac flights are conducted for low-income persons and therefore at no cost to the patient, and so in addition to the "earned donations" from our mission flights ministry, we rely on supplementation from our donor base to continue to operate these life-saving flights.
How you can help:
We operate all of our aviation services on the financial gifts of generous people like you!
In partnership with HERO
Our medi-vac flights are operated in partnership with Haitian Emergency Rescue Operations (HERO).
The HERO team coordinates all the land transportation to/from the aircraft, provides all in-flight care, and coordinates the transfer of care to the receiving hospital.
"HERO provides free, inter facility, hospital transports for Haitian patients requiring ALS [Advanced Life Support] care during transport, since ALS transport care is currently not available in the public EMS system."
