On Wednesday night at NBAA-BACE, business aviation leaders will once again have the opportunity to show their support for the Corporate Angel Network (CAN) at the Fund an Angel Cocktail Reception and silent auction. The event will be held at the Wynn Las Vegas from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., and all proceeds of the auction will benefit CAN’s mission of using business aircraft to transport cancer patients to specialized treatment centers. Founded in 1981, the charity recently flew its 60,000 patient and coordinates more than 250 such flights per month.
The auction will feature a wide selection of items, including aviation-related goods and services to vacation experiences. Attendees will have the opportunity to bid on items throughout the event while networking with their peers. As is customary, items can be previewed on the event website (fundanangel.org) and available for advance bidding for those unable to attend the event.
“The cocktail reception is an excellent way to connect with everyone who supports CAN all year round,” said executive director Gina Russo. “We enjoy having the industry’s top leaders in one place to connect, while also supporting a great cause.” She added it is also a way for the organization to say thank you to its partners, without which its mission would not be possible.
