The Give Hope Wings 2021 expedition surpasses fundraising goal 

A dedicated group of volunteers flew across Western Canada in August 2021 to raise money and awareness to support patients who need to reach medical care far from home. The Give Hope Wings expedition surpassed its original fundraising goal by more than $20,000, raising $422,385 to provide 1,689 flights for patients in need. 

Check back for updates on next year’s expedition expected to go across Canada - from coast to coast. 

The Give Hope Wings expedition is an epic multi-aircraft series of flights in stopping locations through out Canada, visiting the communities where patients live and travel to for treatment. To date, there have been four expeditions that have raised $1.3 million for Hope Air.
