A NATIONAL lottery has been launched at Bankstown Airport to help iconic charity, Angel Flight, buy a new jet to operate throughout regional NSW to help people in medical need.
The Your Jet Life lottery gives people a chance to win their own private plane and support the outstanding work of the Bankstown-based charity at the same time.
It aims to raise a minimum of $2.5 million for Angel Flight and offers a first prize package, including a private plane, to the winner worth over $3 million.
Angel Flight CEO Marjorie Pagani said the lottery was “the first of its kind in Australia”.
“The lottery is designed to raise funds for the purchase of Angel Flight’s first small jet that will operate throughout NSW,” she said.
“For too many regional communities, access to much-needed health care is out of reach, that’s why we will use our aircraft to bring the medical experts to them.”
Angel Flight also provides free transport for goods, and people, into areas affected by floods, fire and any natural disasters; and transports health professionals in all categories (including student placements) to rural and remote communities ensuring hospitals and remote clinics are not left without medical services.
