#GivingTuesday is December 1, and every gift is doubled! A family foundation is matching donations dollar for dollar through December 31, up to $250,000, to help add a second rescue plane.
Pilots To The Rescue’s work is fueled by the dedication of our incredible donors, partners, and volunteers. We absolutely mean it when we say that every donation - no matter the size - makes a difference in how many furry lives we’re able to save.

Every year, nearly 600,000 homeless pets are euthanized in the United States, primarily due to lack of space.
Our Mission
The mission of Pilots To The Rescue is to prevent at-risk animals from being euthanized by transporting them via our own fleet of rescue airplanes and vans to give them the best chance at adoption.
Volunteer pilots fly animals from critical situations to safety, ultimately saving lives.
Pilots To The Rescue coordinates with 100+ rescue partners across the U.S. to rescue thousands of furry lives every year.
