Grateful Patient Team
In celebration of LifeFlight of Maine's 25th anniversary, in 2023 we announced the first ever Cross for LifeFlight Grateful Patient team and it was such a resounding success, we are delighted to bring it back for year 2! We know from speaking with patients that gratitude can be a powerful healing tool. The Grateful Patient team is one way for patients and their to say thank you, build awareness, and help raise funds to ensure LifeFlight crews can continue to answer the call for help from those who need it most.
"Our gratitude to LifeFlight bonds us. We are in the same club that we never expected to be in." Grateful Patient and CFL Participant, KC Ford
Who can join the Grateful Patient team? Do I have to be the patient or can I be a relative?
We know that the gratitude for LifeFlight does not stop at just the patient, it extends are beyond to family members as well. Patients and their direct family members (parents, children, siblings, etc) are invited to join us on the team!
Is there a special rate for being a Grateful Patient team member?
Yes! Contact Ashley MacMillan at amacmillan@lifeflightmaine.org or 207-357-5508 for details and instructions to register.
If I’m on the Grateful Patient team do I need to do my Cross activities with the team?
Being on a team does not mean that you need to do your Crossing activities with the team, however, it sure would be fun to do so! If you wish, you can do your activities on your own at any time in August, or you can join us for any of our in-person gatherings which can be found here, or you could do a mix of both! The beauty in the Cross for LifeFlight is the flexibility and accessibility for all.
Are there any special perks to being on the Grateful Patient team?
Yes! We will celebrate and honor our patients and their family members in various exciting and meaningful ways.
