KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Oct. 5, 2020 - COVID has made it very difficult for non-profit organizations to hold events and raise the money necessary to sustain operations. WildBlue Aircraft Sales is counting on big hearts and hope the local community will help on Saturday, October 17, 2020 for barbeque, beverages, raffle & auction to benefit Challenge Air for Kids & Friends.

Challenge Air was created to change the perception of children with special needs through the gift of flight. Since 1993, it has been committed to making a difference in the lives of children with special needs. With a network of 3,500 volunteers nationwide, Challenge Air continues to grow through events called Fly Days. Typically, the Kansas City area "Fly Day" takes place in September and serves over 120 local youth. This year's event was cancelled.

"Challenge Air is one of those organizations that many folks don't know about," says WildBlue Aircraft Sales owner Chris Kirk. "My company has been involved with Challenge Air for the past 8-10 years and we are fully committed to it's mission of serving the special needs community. Once you become involved you're hooked for life."

Challenge Air has flown nearly 40,000 children with special needs in it's 25+ years of existence.
