CHALLENGE AIR FOR KIDS AND FRIENDS INC Details
Challenge Air for Kids and Friends, a not-for-profit, Texas-based organization, joins with communities and families to host exciting special events, nationwide, where they inspire physically, mentally challenged and seriously ill children and young adults from 7 to 21 by providing the opportunity to fly in small airplanes piloted by both wheelchair and non-wheelchair aviators. The Challenge Air program, which utilizes occupational, recreational, and educational therapy through flying, inspires thousands of special needs, challenged young people to soar above their perceived limitations. Challenge Air for Kids and Friends was founded for the purpose of giving these young people a chance and a choice to see the world from a different view. A view from the sky! The Challenge Air experience helps challenged young people renew their faith in themselves and strive to reach for the sky. They are taught to realize their dreams and goals are indeed possible. The opportunity that is Challenge Air, is the opportunity of a lifetime. At a cruising altitude of 1500 feet, what may seem like a routine flight to most, becomes, for the special needs young person, an experience that excites the senses with newfound inspiration, inspiration that only the freedom of flight can offer. " I felt like a bird up there," said Joy Thomas. "It was fun and exciting, I was free. I got my wings, now I'm a Young Eagle!" Challenge Air events are designed for ALL physically, mentally challenged and seriously ill children and young adults. Events have included children from wheelchair athletic groups, hospitals, therapy/rehab programs, Blind and Deaf associations, United Cerebral Palsy, Easter Seals Society groups, Spina Bifida Association groups, American Cancer Society groups and many, many others. *This page is not affiliated with Challenge Air, or ChallengeAir.com The Mission of Challenge Air for Kids & Friends is to build confidence and self-esteem in children & youth with special needs through the gift of flight.
