Honoring dedication to conservation through the most volunteer flight hours donated in a pilot’s own aircraft

Kenneth and Gabrielle Adelman

Ken and Gabrielle Adelman fly as a team, donating 45.6 flight hours to LightHawk this year. Many of those hours were in their Cessna Citation CJ2, transporting wolf pups and black-footed ferrets as part of endangered species recovery efforts. By shortening travel time, they helped these vulnerable animals reach their destinations with less stress than a long journey by ground. Their generosity with their time, aircraft and expertise makes them a valued and dependable part of LightHawk’s wildlife conservation work.
