Hope Air
Hope Air arranges free flights for Canadians who are in financial need and must travel to healthcare. Hope Air is the only registered, national charity that provides free flights to people who cannot afford the cost of an airline ticket to get to medical expertise or specialized medical technologies that usually exist only in larger urban centres.
Hope air is unique among Canadian charities in what they offer as they are “not an airline, but a lifeline“.
