Teddy’s Dream Flight: Rising Above, Reaching Higher

Some kids face obstacles you can’t always see. For Teddy, school was never a simple path — filled with changes, challenges, and plenty of hard work just to get where he is today. But through it all, Teddy has remained smart, determined, and full of humor — always finding ways to make people smile.

Recently, Teddy got a well-deserved break from life’s struggles — trading classrooms for clouds — when he took his Dream Flight with Above the Clouds. Teddy flew with Chris Steward, one of our dedicated volunteer pilots who helps make these special experiences possible for kids like him. From takeoff to landing, Teddy soared high above the challenges below, experiencing the freedom and confidence that only flight can bring.

At Above the Clouds, we create unforgettable aviation experiences for kids and teens facing adversity — reminding them that no matter how tough the journey has been, the sky is still wide open.

Huge thanks to Chris and to all of our amazing volunteer pilots, donors, and supporters who make Dream Flights like Teddy’s possible. You are helping kids rise above — one flight at a time.
