Southpaw Cares
Up the way you care.
The plane is the platform.
Southpaw Cares is our long-running partnership program with philanthropic organizations that matter to our team, our members, and the communities our airplanes touch. Each year, a cause-aligned airframe enters the fleet as a flying symbol of that organization's mission — and stays in the fleet indefinitely.
The Orange Plane: hunger relief.
Our partnership with a national hunger-relief organization is anchored by an orange-livery airframe that flies year-round in honor of Hunger Action Month and the 200+ member food banks in the network. /* TODO: confirm partner */
Ongoing efforts.
Southpaw Cares aircraft are added to the fleet year over year, flying city to city to keep important causes visible.
