Air Serv helicopters on a relief mission in Sri Lanka |
In Sri Lanka alone, more than 3,600 children are orphaned, with no families to take care of them. Relief supplies are pouring in, but there is limited capability to get the supplies to the people who need them. And that's where AOPA members are helping.
In this video report (3.5 minutes - broadband recommended) from the center of the tsunami disaster, Air Serv International CEO Stu Willcuts shows why AOPA funds were needed and how they are being used. "The aircraft you see are flying because of the support that you have given us," said Willcuts. "On behalf of the hundreds of thousands of Indonesians and Sri Lankans, thank you."
