2010 Strategic Plan

Approved by AFC Board of Trustees— August 21, 2006

Mission Statement

Serving people in need by arranging charitable flights for access to health care and for other humanitarian purposes.

2010 Core Purpose

Support volunteer pilots and serve people in need by making as many successful connections between the two as possible within Angel Flight Central’s 10-state region.

2010 Primary Measurable Outcomes

3,000 missions flown annually by the end of Fiscal Year 2010. 
(Over 8 missions per day. This is fewer than the 5,500 or 15 missions per day originally set in the 2010 vision from several years ago, but is a more realistic, yet challenging number to meet based on where the organization and the world of charitable aviation is currently at.)

ADDITIONAL MEASURABLE OUTCOMES:

  • Increased number of missions available for volunteer pilots to fly
  • Increased number of passengers
  • Increased number of requests for assistance from referral resources
  • Increased number of requestors
  • Increased number of active volunteers
