Wings of Hope Recognizes Volunteers at Holiday Luncheon

By Carmelo Turdo

Wings of Hope hosted a holiday luncheon December 5 at their Spirit of St. Louis Airport World Headquarters. Wings of Hope Board members, staff, volunteers and their families gathered in the hangar for food and fellowship in a festive atmosphere. The annual event celebrates the work of the many volunteers who fulfill the Wings of Hope mission of "Changing and Saving Lives Though the Power of Aviation."

A great variety of delicious food was ready for the guests when they arrived. Wings of Hope President, Amy Cole Buehler, Board Vice Chairman Patrick Bowen, and Director of Administration Lena Pak greeted everyone as they gathered for the lunch buffet. They, along with Wings of Hope staff, served volunteers and their guests a delicious lunch with all the fixings and a large selection of desserts.     

Wings of Hope is a global humanitarian nonprofit organization serving those in need around the world for over sixty years. The mission of Wings of Hope is "Changing and Saving Lives Through the Power of Aviation." That mission is accomplished directly through Global Humanitarian Programs and the U.S. Medical Relief and Air Transport (MAT) program. The Aero Experience thanks Wings of Hope for all they have accomplished, and we encourage everyone to support their mission now and in the coming year.
