Canadian Wings of Rescue is a 100% volunteer run federally registered charity organization dedicated to rescuing animals within Canada. Our purpose is to work with Canadian rescue groups, shelters, and/or wildlife rehabilitation centres when they are faced with a transportation need. We arrange short flights via our amazing volunteer pilots wherever possible.
We provide free, or low cost options for, domestic flights to Canadian not-for-profit animal welfare organizations. Transports for abused, abandoned and injured animals to fosters, adopters, rehabilitation or transfers to other not-for-profit organizations.

Three incredible dogs—Rhea, Sidney, and Preacher—were surrendered to @A_Tail_to_Tell Rescue in Manitoba and found themselves in need of a new chance.
Thankfully, our amazing network of volunteers came together to give them a fresh start!
After making their way from Manitoba to Toronto, our volunteer pilot, @TangoTangoMango, generously donated his aircraft and time to fly these pups from @bbishopairport to @flyyow, where @BarkOttawa was ready to welcome them with open arms.
Moving to BARK Ottawa gives Rhea, Sidney, and Preacher a better shot at adoption and finding their forever homes!
A huge thank you to @Stolport.ytz for their partnership which makes it easier and more affordable for pilots to fuel-up and fly these life-changing transports.
If you believe every animal deserves a second chance, join us in supporting future transports. Donate, volunteer, or share this story to help spread the word.

We almost can’t believe that we transported 14 cats and kittens in one flight earlier this month!
Our volunteer pilot, @Fraserrecon flew 14 felines across British Columbia from Fort St. John`s @np_forgottenfelinessociety rescue, which was at capacity, to Victoria`s @BPRescue
Fraser is one of over 200 pilots who donate their time and aircrafts to make these life-changing transports possible.
We believe that distance should never stand in the way of finding a forever home for our furry friends. Thanks to our incredible network of pilots, volunteers and donors, we’re making this vision a reality one flight at a time.

A northern Ontario rescue is already over-capacity but one night, two puppies are abandoned at their doorstep. They can`t find it in their hearts to turn them away. So, what options do they have?
One solution is to coordinate with another rescue that has capacity. But if the rescue with space is far away, how do they get there?
That`s where we come in! Canadian rescues can use our easy intake form to request free transport from one of our volunteer pilots!
From there we connect with our network of over 200 pilots to fulfil the request. Once a pilot volunteers for the transport, we aim to make it completely seamless for the rescues and the pilots to work together to make sure distance is never a barrier to animals in need.
Every rescue flight involves careful planning and teamwork. With each flight, we’re reminded of the power of compassion and the difference we can make together.
