We held the cherished Vote Event in the Wings of Hope hangar on February 18, and the results are in! In 2022, we are raising funds for general aviation support for Wings of Hope’s Global Humanitarian Network and a maternal health care program through our partner in Colombia, Patrulla Aérea Civil Colombiana.
General aviation support for the Global Humanitarian Network is a means to provide consistent, baseline funding to all global partners to ensure equity in the funding process and to mitigate emergent requests for funding of large expenses. Specifically, the money we raise will support:
- Fuel for medevac flights
- Parts and supplies
- Annual inspections
- Maintenance for airstrips
- New aircraft
The maternal health care program in Colombia will give access to vital prenatal controls to screen for high-risk pregnancies, including:
- OB-GYN Telesupport
- Monthly ultrasounds
- Prenatal controls and diagnostic tools workshops
- Additional maternity support
- Nutrition telehealth appointments
- Self-care workshops
The program goal is improving maternal and infant mortality rates in the department of Nariño.
Thank you to all who attended. We look forward to your continued support in 2022!
