The near 700 flights are a substantial increase from last October's total of 557.
"We couldn't be happier with October's outcome," said Miracle Flights' CEO Mark E. Brown. "We don't just look at these numbers as flights, but as lives saved. We're always pushing to help as many families as possible, and October did not disappoint. We encourage anyone that needs assistance to give us a call."
With the approach of Giving Tuesday on Dec. 1, Miracle Flights would also like to encourage support through their matching gift challenge, with a goal of $5,000.
