Free or donated flights for nonprofits?

Hey everybody,

I'm a volunteer with the World University Project (WUP) and I've been tasked with finding information regarding flight services provided for free to non-profit and non-governmental organizations, including charity flights, donated flights, travel credit systems (e.g., the UNICEF-EasyJet deal), which are provided either by public benefit flying organizations or corporations (e.g., corporate sponsorships). I would really appreciate any pointers or suggestions!

Also check with AOPA to make sure you have all the "i's dotted so you
don't end up getting charged with commercial operation.

Are you saying that Angel Flight and Air Care Alliance are commercial
operations? I thought they operated charity flights.

That's true, but we're talking about the FAA here. You have to publicize
and conduct the flights the right way, otherwise the FAA will charge you
with unlicensed commercial operation. AOPA has material on how to do
that.

Publicize flights?? Why does the AOPA need to be involved?
