Some help please. Qantas has workplace giving through CAF Community Aid Foundation / Good2Give. This is a great system where all monthly and ad hoc charity donations from staff in some of Australia's large and small companies are coordinated through a one stop shop.
Do other operators including Virgin and Jetstar have an equivalent?
For many years now a number of Qantas pilots have donated monthly to the Wheelies with Wings program (see below) which seems to be regarded as a very special program that all aviators appreciate.
Up to now an appeal for donations has not been made to Virgin and Jetstar (and all pilots) but we want to change that.
Would appreciate any PM’s advising what workplace giving their companies have in place and any contacts who could help send out an appeal letter to crews.
Wheelies with Wings is a charity and a non profit organisation. Its purpose is to offer to physically disabled people the opportunity to gain a flying experience. This allows physically disabled people to gain a sense of freedom and achievement - a stepping stone to use to further challenges.
We continue making a difference to the lives of those who have been dealt some of life’s less attractive cards. The chance to control an aircraft and fly as free as a bird is something many of our recipients never expected.
All details are on our website. wheelieswithwings.com.au
Thanks in advance.
