American Airlines was honored at the United Nations on June 20 for the Miles for Kids in Need program for leadership in providing this innovative program helping children.  Miles for Kids in Need is an official sponsor of the Global Officials of Dignity Awards and American will be recognized for corporate social responsibility at this event with humanitarians from around the globe.  Here’s a recent article on the Children’s Medical Escort Program

Airline Ambassadors gives heartfelt thanks to American Airlines for sponsorship and support of our programs.  The support of AAI members traveling on Humanitarian Missions, Children’s Medical Escorts as well as mileage support through AA Miles for Kids in Need has supported our work helping children around the world.

Employees at American Airlines can donate to Airline Ambassadors via payroll deduction and AA’s internal and external communications support have meant so much to our work.   AA features a static in-flight ad on 777 airplanes and has shared a 30 sec. PSA with passengers.

Airline Ambassadors  began with AA flight attendants using our pass privileges to help children and we have become the only overall charity of the airline industry.  We are very grateful for ongoing  support from American and look forward to expanding a humanitarian partnership with the new American Airlines helping children worldwide.
