Spirit Airlines Unveils Enhanced Travel Experience with 'More Fly Fly-Away' Giveaway
100 percent of donations will benefit the philanthropic works of the Spirit Charitable Foundation
MIRAMAR, Fla., 2023-Sep-06 — /Travel PR News/ — Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE) is celebrating International Charity Day by introducing a new way to donate to the Spirit Charitable Foundation. The airline recently launched a round-up feature on spirit.com where Guests can choose to increase their total to the next whole dollar during booking and make a difference in the lives of children and families, service members, and the environment. The option will be available for travelers booking flights on the website, making it easier than ever to contribute to the causes of nonprofits across Spirit’s network, and help be a force for good.
“This new initiative is a big step forward in our efforts to make a meaningful social impact in the communities where we live and fly and gives our Guests a chance to contribute to the life-changing work our nonprofit partners are carrying out every day,” said Lania Rittenhouse, President of The Spirit Charitable Foundation and Vice President of Guest Experience, Brand & Communications for Spirit Airlines. “We’re also proud to involve our Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEI&B) Resource Groups in the nonprofit selection process, allowing these Team Members to identify organizations that resonate with them and advance causes they’re passionate about.”
So far in 2023, the Foundation has committed $1.3 million to 57 nonprofits across the U.S., Latin America and the Caribbean, with plans to announce more investments later this year. The airline’s award-winning Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Belonging (DEI&B) efforts include empowering its DEI&B Resource Groups to give back to causes at the heart of their respective missions. The Asian, Black, Latinx, LGBTQIA+, Third Culture Individual, Women, and Veterans Resource Groups selected 23 of the nonprofits this year.
The Foundation’s social impact has grown significantly since it first launched in 2018, investing nearly four times more in nonprofit organizations today. It’s also known for establishing and honoring long-term commitments with select nonprofits, building a partnership these organizations can count on year after year.
Every small donation will lead to a big impact on these organizations, including the works highlighted below:
The Spirit Charitable Foundation believes that change starts by giving back. It is committed to inspiring positive change in the communities where the Spirit Family lives and works. The Foundation invests in organizations that have a meaningful social impact on the lives of children & families, service members, and the environment, through Team Member volunteerism, monetary and in-kind donations.
