When the bonds of family intersect with the challenges faced by Wounded Warriors, something extraordinary happens. It's a tale of resilience and reunion, brought to life by Fletcher Gill, CEO and co-founder of Luke's Wings. As our esteemed guest, he shares the moving origins and pivotal mission of an organization committed to bringing together service members and their loved ones during recovery. Picture the embrace of a child, the support of a spouse, the comfort of a parent—these are the moments that Luke's Wings makes possible, with over 16,000 flights ensuring that no hero heals alone.
This conversation is more than just stories of heartwarming homecomings; it's a look behind the scenes at the partnerships and technology that make these moments possible. From Delta's mileage donations to American Airlines' price matching, the intricate dance of logistics and compassion comes to life. As we navigate the organization's journey and its funding lifelines, we're reminded of the ongoing need for support—whether for veterans headed to therapeutic retreats or families grappling with the aftermath of military sexual assault trauma. Fletcher's call to action is clear: join the effort to uphold our service members and their families in their time of need because healing together is the most powerful medicine of all.
