Why did you become a volunteer with

Wings Foundation, Inc?

I had a trip trade service before I was a Flight Attendant. I was involved with Dallas Flight Attendants and had friends that needed help. First I assisted with PVD donations because I would do the Trip Trade/Bidding Service work and ask for a donation to the a specific Flight Attendant in lieu payment. Once I became a Flight Attendant, as soon as I adjusted to the East Coast base and move, I was asked to help with WINGS NYC. I became a WINGS NYC caseworker, secretary and treasurer.
