About Us

Wings of Rescue is a 501(c)(3) charity that flies at-risk pets from overcrowded shelters and disaster areas to safe havens — from where they are quickly adopted into loving, forever homes. 

Every flight is done in a fully pressurized plane, with the pets riding in the same cabin as our entire flight crew.  We don’t just fly pets. When disaster strikes, our aircraft carry vital veterinary supplies and humanitarian aid.

Flights can only solve a vital - but still small part of the pet overpopulation crisis.  Spay and neuter programs are essential to reducing the overwhelming number of unwanted pets entering shelters. That’s why Wings of Rescue proudly sponsors our Operation Pit Stop program, which provides free spay/neuter procedures to low-income families' pets.  Making spay/neuter procedures affordable and available is the only way to permanently stop shelter euthanasia.

At the heart of everything we do is the simple belief: that every pet deserves a loving home. We know that responsible pet ownership not only transforms the lives of pets—but also strengthens families, enriches lives, and builds more compassionate communities.
