How Chirag Chopra is helping to create healthier, happier and more connected communities

Meet Chirag Chopra, board member of Canadian Wings of Rescue (CWoR) with a heart as big as the Canadian skies. Driven by a deep-seated passion for community welfare and a love for animals, Chirag has been instrumental in guiding CWoR through challenging times and setting the organization on a course for a brighter future.
“The pandemic really tested the resilience of many community organizations,” says a colleague who has worked closely with Chirag. “But Chirag, with his unwavering belief in CWoR’s mission, stepped up to help steer the organization through those turbulent times.”

Chirag joined the board in November 2021, bringing a unique blend of expertise and compassion with him. He recognized the vital role aviation plays in supporting animal welfare and was determined to ensure that CWoR continued to provide its crucial services.

But Chirag’s vision extends beyond rescuing animals and sees CWoR as a catalyst for connecting animal lovers across Canada. “In 2025,” he says, “I hope to see CWoR expand its capabilities and continuing to be a central hub for collaboration between rescue organizations, fostering a nationwide community of support and shared resources.”

Among his many heartwarming experiences with CWoR, the rescue of Winnie, a dog found abandoned and injured in Jamaica, holds a special place in his heart. Winnie’s story, a testament to the power of collaboration and compassion, underscores the impact that CWoR and its dedicated volunteers have on the lives of animals in need.

“Chirag was deeply moved by Winnie’s journey,” says a fellow CWoR volunteer. “It reinforced his belief in the importance of their work and the difference they make.”

Chirag’s dedication to creating heathier, happier communities goes even further than public benefit flying. He’s also studying to become a medical doctor.

“I’ve long admired the role that a physician plays in their patients’ lives. A physician is a guide to a healthy life, and I hope to bring that holistic approach to my practice,” Chirag shared. “I’ve also heard many physicians learn to fly and provide services in remote and rural communities…I’m excited to see what the future holds!”

Chirag’s commitment to animal welfare, commitment to community service, and pursuit of a medical career paint a picture of an individual driven by compassion and a desire to make a positive impact on the world.
