A Sister’s Flight to Be With Her Family

Flight Story #1335

Edmonton, Alberta to Vancouver, British Columbia

When Val learned that her sister, Dorinda, was facing a critical health situation and receiving care in Prince George, she knew she needed to be there. Distance and travel costs stood in the way and she would need help to make the trip possible.
Travel, however, wasn’t simple. Valerie lives on a limited income and has her own health concerns, which made arranging a flight on her own impossible. She reached out to Give A Mile, hoping that somehow she could make it to Prince George to be with her sister and support the rest of her family.
When she received the news, her gratitude was immediate and heartfelt.

“Thank you so much... This means the world to me and makes it possible to be with my sister... I really didn’t know how I was going to do it without you.”

For Valerie, the flight meant far more than simply traveling home — it meant being by her sister’s side, sharing time together, and bringing comfort to her family. Those quiet moments, made possible through compassion and generosity, are what Give A Mile is all about.
Because of Lexus On The Park, Valerie was able to reach her sister’s side and spend time surrounded by family. Each flight like this one is a reminder that generosity brings loved ones together and creates lasting moments of peace.
We are deeply grateful to Lexus On The Park for turning compassion into connection, one flight at a time.

Every donation helps people reach their loved ones for one last hug, smile, and farewell.​
