365 Days. 30 flights. 1 scholarship. $45,000 raised ✈️

When we started Echo Mike, we had the honor of taking the runway had paved to the skies. We knew the power of aviation firsthand, but we didn’t know how fast this community would help us take flight.

As we celebrate our one-year anniversary, we are looking back at the “flight log” of our success. Every dollar has gone toward ensuring that aviation is a tool for good providing access, opportunity, and hope.

THANK YOU to all the incredible people…friends, family and fellow aviators who made Year 1 possible. We don’t be more grateful to have you in the cockpit with us.

Aviation makes a difference in ways many people never see.

is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that partners with companies nationwide to utilize available seats on scheduled corporate flight flights. They transport cancer patients to leading treatment centers across the country at no cost to the patient or the participating company.

It’s a simple, but powerful model: aircraft already flying, seats already available, lives changed forever.

Since it’s founding in 1981, CAN has arranged more than 70,000 cancer patient flights. Yet today, they’re only available to fulfill about half of the flight request they receive. 🚨

Here’s how the community can help:

✈️ If your business has a corporate flight departments, introduce them to CAN so they can join the network and make empty seats available.
✈️ industry professional can help spread awareness within their organizations.
✈️ Tell healthcare providers and cancer patients about CAN should they need a travel resource.
✈️ Contribute financially through or to help expand access to life-saving care.

To further bridge the gap CAN also accepts vouchers and donations to purchase commercial flights for patients when corporate flight flights are not available.

When the aviation community comes together, more kids, their patients receive the care they need. Echo Mike is proud to support an organization that proves aviation can be a powerful force for good.

This week we were made aware of a family searching for private transportation to Seattle Children’s Hospital for their son who is suffering from a rare form of cancer. He has an opportunity to participate in a life-saving treatment and cannot risk being exposed to the germs that come with commercial travel. Thank you for taking action to help this family, for your ongoing support, and for thinking of Echo Mike.) This is not a rare story. This is a reality for so many people suffering from this disease.

We immediately thought about some of the amazing organizations who could help this family including the incredible team .

Corporate Angel Network’s mission is to help cancer patients access the best treatment centers in the USA by arranging free travel on corporate aircraft. The work they do is paramount in helping to save lives.

Echo Mike’s contribution will help provide transportation for these remarkable warriors facing some of the biggest battles of their lives. It goes without saying the Mike would have flown every person facing a medical battle if he could. We appreciate all of the support in continuing his legacy by using aviation for good. 💛

This space is dedicated to how aviation can be used for the betterment of humanity and to share the impact that Echo Mike is making which each mission. This post is a bit different. This post is in honor of our captain, . He had the mindset, the massive heart and the means to use his wings to make the world a better place. Everyone who knew him, misses him. Everyone who loved him, will forever. Everyone who flew alongside him, would give anything for one more flight.

On Giving Tuesday, whether you choose to support Echo Mike or another cause that you’re passionate about, please think of Mike and blow a kiss to the sky. Supporting others was one of his greatest joys and we know he’s watching over all of us.

🫶,
Mike’s Family
