Flight Story #1242
Oakland, California > Houston, Texas — 35,000 United MileagePlus Miles + $11.20 USD
Lisa’s great aunt wasn’t just a family member—she was the woman who raised her, loved her, and shaped the person she is today. When Lisa learned that her great aunt’s cancer was progressing, she knew she had to be by her side.
Her aunt’s doctors had made it clear that time was limited, but Lisa was in a difficult position and she couldn’t afford a last-minute flight.
“I love her so much. She raised me, and it would mean so much to me,” Lisa shared. The thought of not being able to see her, to hold her hand one last time, was unbearable.
Thanks to our generous donors, Give A Mile was able to provide Lisa with a flight of compassion. She didn’t have to wait. She didn’t have to wonder if she would make it in time. Instead, she was able to sit by her great aunt’s side, offer her love and comfort, and say goodbye. These moments matter. These flights change lives. And it’s because of you, our donors, that they are possible.
