Wings Foundation, Inc. Assistance Application

Wings Foundation, Inc.

Dear Flight Attendant:

Thank you for contacting the Wings Foundation. We realize that this is a difficult time for you and we would like to make applying for assistance as easy as possible. The following application has a check-list to assist you.

“The stated mission of WINGS shall be to form a grassroots volunteer organization that collects and administers funds from and for Flight Attendants on the American Airlines Inc. System Seniority list who are in critical need of financial assistance as a result of illness, injury, or disability; or who are out of sick time; or who are without disability benefits; or those who have had a catastrophe or disaster which causes major hardship that would justify financial support.”

WINGS endeavors to assist AA flight attendants on the APFA system seniority list who are out of sick time or who is a caregiver for a registered ill dependent with basic living expenses.

WINGS provides a “bridge” to help cover crucial monthly expenses, including mortgage or rent, utilities, a phone and auto, as well as medical insurance. While we are not always able to cover all monthly expenses, we are able to provide guidance and direction in areas where some expenses might be reviewed to be reduced or eliminated.

Please keep in mind that WINGS is not an insurance or disability policy.

To be considered for financial assistance, an American Airlines mainline flight attendant facing an illness, injury, or disability that causes a critical need for financial assistance must meet these requirements:
- Active on the American Airlines APFA System Seniority List
- Depletion of available sick time
- Presently on the sick/absence list or projected to be removed from service a minimum of fourty-five (45) days with medical documentation
- Possess less than two (2) months of usable income to cover household expenses
- Provide a completed WINGS Application for Financial Assistance along with supporting documentation outlined in the application checklist
WINGS exists through the generosity of your fellow flight attendants and volunteer committee members.

All information is confidential.
