Sunday was a truly meaningful day for Buffalo River Aviation. While we never want to see any child face a critical illness, we are incredibly blessed to have organizations like Make-A-Wish Mid-South bringing hope to kids and families in need.
We had the honor of granting a wish by flying seven-year-old Leo S. and his family from Northwest Arkansas to Disney World in Orlando on one of our aircraft. It was a special moment for our entire team at the sendoff event, where we were proud to present Leo with his very own Buffalo River Aviation challenge coin.
A huge thank you to the volunteers who made the event possible, the media partners who helped amplify the Make-A-Wish mission, and especially to Leo. Thank you for smiling while fighting your illness—you are an example of strength for us all.
