Thank you to everyone who came out to donate blood yesterday! 🩸

Because of your generosity, we collected 7 units of blood for our community—each one making a real difference for patients who need it most. At Saints Flight, we carry blood on every flight, and donations like these directly support the care we’re able to provide in critical moments 🚁

A special thank you to Illinois State Police Troop 6 for stopping by and spending part of your day with us, and to ImpactLife for helping make this blood drive possible. We appreciate your support 💙

Hoppy Easter everybody! 🐰💐

Kayla and Abbie kicked off the morning with their first scene flight together! To celebrate, they grabbed a photo in front of the Peoria skyline and shared a crisp Diet Coke 🚁

Today, we also have a pilot visiting from our sister base, LifeNet 7-14 in Rome, New York. Dave brings a wealth of experience, and we’re grateful he chose to spend his Easter with us 💙🐣
