Airline Ambassadors Intl. and Black & Light Co. have partnered up after the largely succesful 2008 Global Compassion ball in NYC. After using the appropriated Airline Ambassadors code on the Black & Light Co. website, AAI100, 10% of the proceeds from each candle sold will go directly to benefit the Airline Ambassadors organization.
Airline Ambassadors was founded in 1996 by Nancy Rivard. A flight attendant working for American Airlines, she was able to leverage her industry resources to help underprivileged children and families in communities across the globe. It began as a group of airline personnel, and now includes over 6000 members who donate their time and money for causes ranging from child development to international disaster relief.
Since its inception in 96′ Airline Ambassadors has hand delivered over $46 Million in aid to children in over fifty-two countries. They have impacted over 500,000 children in many different ways including opening medical clinics and escorting children in need through surgeries that they would otherwise be unable to receive.
During these troubling economic times, Holly and Black & Light Co. have continued to focus on ways to change others lives, and not necessarily ways to cut costs or trim losses. Helping others, especially children in need, has been a pillar in the foundation of the principles Black & Light Co. was built upon. Their partnership with Airline Ambassadors reinforces these principles and increasingly solidifies the vision that Holly Eve has set for forth the company.
