Hospital Transportation Program
Donated Aeroplan Miles contribute to transporting children across Canada seeking advanced medical treatment not offered in their community.
The Air Canada Foundation is committed to giving back to children and the community through various programs and partnerships. Our financial support helps provide pediatric hospitals with the equipment they need and encourages programs with our partners. Through Aeroplan Mile donations, we are able to sustain the Hospital Transportation Program. We enable other charities to reach their fundraising goals, all within our main mission of helping children.
Below is an overview of our main programs.
