Aviation making a difference
Aviation For Humanity is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing safe, cost efficient and reliable air transport in remote areas to humanitarian agencies. Each flight we make is subsidized for qualifying humanitarian groups - our costs are primarily covered by grants and generous public donations from caring people like you. Aviation has given us a different way of looking at the world - once-distant countries are now our next-door neighbors. AFH is committed to doing everything in our power to make a difference in developing countries by bringing medical care and humanitarian aid where it is needed most. - Service

Notes
Haiti - a close neighbor in need
Just under 700nm from Miami, less than 2 hours by airliner, is Haiti. 9 Million people here do their best to live on average of less than 1 dollar a day, in a country where unemployment is over 80% and life expectancy is sadly only 53 years. Imagine trying to live on an annual income of less than 400 dollars, and you can understand the hardship faced by many of the people in Haiti.
HAITI EARTHQUAKE NEWS
We were working in Haiti before the earthquake, and now we are needed more than ever.
A donation to AFH will help fly UM/Project Medishare doctors to Haiti - a direct way to make a real difference.
