The support staff of AFW will also use the SUV when planning disaster relief activities as well as during regional promotions.
“This generous donation from Saab will greatly help us increase the awareness of Angel Flight West’s service throughout the Western United States. It is a magnificent vehicle that provides our patients, passengers and staff with a safe and comfortable way to travel when we are not in the air,” Michael Nanko said, Chief Executive Officer of AFW.
According to Saab Automobile USA General Manager Steve Shannon, “Air Charity Network provides a crucial service to people in need, and Saab is proud to support their efforts. Saab customers are traditionally very socially responsible, likewise so is Saab. By partnering with Angel Flight West, we can give back to the community in a way that complements our aircraft heritage.”
