About this listen
In part two of The Open Skies Podcast series on Hope Air, host Chris Glass sits down with Jon Collins, Chief Development Officer, to discuss the ongoing challenge of ensuring that no Canadian is left behind when it comes to accessing medical care. Jon shares his personal connection to Hope Air’s mission and how the organization’s work resonates with families across the country who face financial and logistical barriers to healthcare.
With demand for Hope Air’s services continuing to rise—expected to surpass 43,000 travel arrangements this year—Jon explains the importance of funding, airline partnerships, and community support to keep this life-changing service operational. He shares moving patient stories, including families who, without Hope Air, would be forced to take grueling 14-hour drives or sleep in their cars while seeking treatment. This episode highlights how aviation plays a crucial role in healthcare accessibility and why supporting Hope Air isn’t just charitable—it’s essential.
