Perfect Weather, Incredible Kids, and the Best Dream Flight Day of the Year
This past Saturday, September 27, was one for the books. With the clearest skies and smoothest air of the season, we celebrated our biggest and best Dream Flight Day of the year. Thanks to our amazing community of pilots, flight coordinators, joy makers, photographers, and ground crew, nine extraordinary children got to take to the skies for an unforgettable experience.
Over 20 volunteers joined us, each one giving their time, energy, and heart to make the day magical. A special thank-you goes out to Keith Cavella from Dunkin’ for coming out to lend a hand and support the day. Your generosity and enthusiasm helped make our families feel so welcomed.
Stories of Strength and Courage
Our Dream Flyers showed extraordinary resilience. Some were completing treatment for cancer or living with autism and communication challenges. Others faced rare genetic disorders, vision loss, or serious heart and lung conditions. A few were coping with developmental delays, anxiety, or bullying. Despite these hardships, each child left their struggles on the ground and soared with joy, confidence, and hope.
Thank You
To our pilots, volunteers, and supporters: thank you for making this day possible. Your generosity, your skills, and your spirit are what keep Above the Clouds flying. We are grateful for every hour, every smile, and every moment you share with our Dream Flyers and their families.
