Corporate Angel Network Hits Milestone Patient Flight
The Westchester County, New York-based business aviation industry charity has been helping cancer patients for nearly 35 years.

This week Corporate Angel Network (CAN), the charity that uses available seats on business aircraft flights to transport cancer victims to treatment, flew its 49,000th and 49,001st patients since it was launched in 1981. The flight on Tuesday was operated by Dow Chemical, one of the first companies to offer its flights to CAN, and carried 54-year-old Richard Gremillion Jr. and his 74-year-old father—both prostate cancer patients—from Baton Rouge to Houston, where they are receiving treatment.
