What We Do
Transportation challenges create one of the most daunting barriers to healthcare — a barrier second only to the cost. Every day, Angel Flight West’s volunteer pilots fly people to their non-emergency medical appointments at no cost to the passenger.
Though we’re best known for linking passengers to valuable medical resources, we also provide transportation for other humanitarian purposes, such as individuals and families escaping domestic violence, disaster relief, therapeutic programs for veterans, and children’s specialty camps.

Real Stories, Real Impact
“Since that first flight, the volunteer pilots and AFW team have been nothing short of incredible. Because of AFW, we’re able to get Eli to his medical appointments safely and without the stress of long, exhausting drives. The volunteers make us feel cared for, supported, and truly seen — like we’re part of their family.”
“As disabled veterans, we need these programs in our lives. We deal with a lot of grief and loss. Resources like these, with special opportunities like a private flight… that saves lives.”
