Angel Flight
Angel Flight East (AFE) offers free air transportation for patients who must travel long distances for medical care but encounter financial, logistical, or geographic barriers. Serving 14 Northeastern states, AFE arranges flights with volunteer pilots who donate their time, aircraft, and all flight-related costs. Patients who are medically stable and able to walk onto the plane can request flights for treatment, clinical trials, evaluations, and follow-up appointments. AFE also transports approved companions and provides compassion flights so families can stay together during critical moments. AFE’s mission is clear: to make sure that distance never keeps a patient from the care they need.

Brian Dawkins IMPACT Foundation - A Single Parent Family Program
Launching in early 2022, the Brian Dawkins Single Parent Families Program is designed to provide low-income single parents with the resources to support the well-being and attainment of their child.
The Single Parent Families Program will be solely administered by Caring People Alliance, and will be made possible by an initial $15,000 donation from the Brian Dawkins Impact Foundation. Caring People Alliance will make up to 30 grants for the children of low-income single parents, providing access to holistic education opportunities -whether they be academic, athletic, artistic, musical, vocational or related to mental wellbeing. Single parents are often doing superhero work and through this Program we want to provide additional support systems so that their children can take advantage of resources to strengthen their wellbeing, and help them get ahead in life.
Along The Way
We are dedicated to empowering single mothers and their families to break the chains of poverty. Through our programs, we provide childcare, job placement assistance, and support services, giving these mothers the tools they need to create a better life for themselves and their children. The impact we’ve seen has been nothing short of transformative, with countless families finding stability, hope, and a brighter future.
If you or someone you know could benefit from our services, please contact us. We’re always here to help!
