Mireya Blavia de Cisneros leads global humanitarian aid program
Program benefits for NGOs
The grants aim to strengthen NGO capacities, enabling them to expand operations and respond faster and more efficiently. Some of the funded activities include:
- Transportation of medical supplies and food.
- Evacuation of individuals in danger.
- Immediate response to health emergencies.
- Reconstruction and support for affected communities.
This innovative program offers grants to humanitarian organizations worldwide to prevent, mitigate, and respond to natural disasters, conflicts, and health crises through the use of aviation.
Mireya Blavia de Cisneros, a prominent leader in philanthropic initiatives, recently launched the Humanitarian Aid Program, a global effort that leverages the power of aviation to transform emergency and humanitarian crisis response. This program provides grants to registered non-governmental organizations (NGOs) focused on disaster prevention, relief, and recovery efforts.
The power of aviation to save lives
Aviation is a critical resource in emergencies, especially in remote and hard-to-reach areas. Through the Humanitarian Aid Program, NGOs receive financial support to carry out rescue missions, transport essential medical supplies, deliver food, and evacuate people affected by disasters.
According to Mireya Blavia de Cisneros, “The program aims to channel resources to organizations already making a difference but in need of a boost to maximize their impact. Aviation not only saves lives but also provides hope in moments of despair.”
Priority areas of the program
The Humanitarian Aid Program is designed to address three key areas:
- Natural disasters: Droughts, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions affecting vulnerable communities.
- Man-made disasters: Armed conflicts, industrial or transportation accidents, and social crises.
- Health crises: Medical emergencies such as epidemics, disease outbreaks, and lack of access to essential medicines.
