Wings of Rescue, a nonprofit group founded by Yehuda Netanel, hopes to make its 2015 Thanksgiving holiday airlift its biggest event to date with 25 planes carrying more than 1,000 dogs and 100 cats to new homes around the United States.

“Last year we flew 608 animals, "Ric Browde, a volunteer of Wings of Rescue said. "And as soon as the last plane took off, Yehuda told me,‘Next year we have to，bigger, we have to do 1,000 dogs!’ But I wondered whether we could get 1,000 dogs. Then lie said there were more than 1,000 dogs that need homes.”

The airlift will use a variety of aircraft. While most pilots involved are seasoned Wings of Rescue volunteers, there will be a couple of pilots making their first rescue flight.“we’re always looking for new pilots that are willing to join the team，”added Browde。

The event will be filmed as part of the All-Star Dog Rescue Celebration to air on the FOX network in prime time on Thanksgiving. The two-hour special aims to raise awareness for the eight million animals currently in the U. S. shelter system. It’s being produced by actress Hilary Swank and will feature celebrity guests who will introduce the dogs in need of homes and honor the volunteers who dedicate their lives to caring for animals in need.

The airlift will cost the group more than$100,000. Browde says,on average, it costs $100 to save one dog which includes fuel, rental fees for large aircraft and the cost of the health certificate required for each animal to fl

Every dollar that is contributed goes directly to helping save a pet's life, and Browde emphasizes that no donation is too small. "We're using money to get the planes in the air and get the dogs where they need to go.”
