Since 2008, Debi, founder and president of Pilots N Paws, and an all-volunteer group have made a difference in the lives of over 200,000 innocent animals. The mission of Pilots N Paws is to “provide a user-friendly website communication venue between those that rescue, shelter, and foster animals and pilots and plane owners willing to assist with the transportation of these animals.”
As it turns out, there are pilots who are always looking for an excuse to fly! Volunteer pilots coordinate with rescue workers to fly abandoned pets, animals at risk of euthanasia, military working dogs, service dogs, and dogs who have been adopted by soldiers from war zones to safe havens and forever homes.
