ONEflight International partnered with country music star Lainey Wilson in a notable humanitarian mission, delivering essential supplies to victims of Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina. The mission, in support of local first responders and volunteers, began on October 22. Wilson personally contributed insulin,while ONEflight supplied space heaters and blankets, as well as donated the flight.
“My heart is with y’all,” Wilson said to more than 30 first responders at Rutherford County Airport (KFQD). She also joined a prayer circle and a convoy led by the Rutherford County sheriff’s office to assess damage at Chimney Rock, one of the hardest-hit areas.
“It’s a privilege to partner with Lainey Wilson for this mission,” said Ferren Rajput, ONEflight International CEO and founder. “We are committed to using our resources to help communities in need.”
The Rutherford County Habitat for Humanity coordinated the onsite donation efforts to ensure that supplies reached those in need.
