Key Takeaways:

  • The Corporate Angel Network (CAN) is hosting its annual "Fund An Angel" auction virtually, following the cancellation of the NBAA's live event, to secure crucial financial support for its mission.
  • The virtual auction is vital because the COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted CAN's financial resources and the availability of aircraft for transporting cancer patients.
  • Despite these challenges, CAN continues to coordinate flights for cancer patients, having transported over 63,000 individuals since 1981, with the online auction accepting bids and pledges until October 7th.
