Like many non-profit ministries, Missionary Flights International is grateful for the many volunteers that assist us each week. Volunteers help MFI maintain and load the airplanes. Volunteers also help sort the missionary mail and process the cargo after it is delivered to our warehouse. With training, volunteers can even help as flight attendants on our weekly trips to Haiti and the Dominican Republic. If you are interested in becoming an MFI volunteer, please contact our office, or click on the Volunteer Form link, print out and complete the form, and then mail it to Missionary Flights.
