Angel Bus "From Home to Hope"
We thank George Myers, author of the following article for permission to reproduce it on our website - the article appeared in the April 2010 FMCA Publication. "Family Motor Coaching"
Angel Bus is a non-profit national charity that arranges non-emergency ground transportation for individuals who must get to a distant facility for specialized medical treatment. These trips, called missions, are accomplished by motor home owners who volunteer their time and the use of their coaches. The operation is managed by Mercy Medical Airlift, an organization of professionals who have 30 years of experience in helping the needy get to often life saving treatment. A motor home can provide gentle transportation from the door of one facility, a home, or hospital, to the door of another. This can make a trip bearable to patients that are in particularly fragile condition. If you know someone needing transportation help, call Angel Bus at 1-800-768-0238
