SkyBahamas made a special delivery on Christmas Eve this year as representatives brought cards and gifts for each child of The Mission Home for children in Cat Island.

In celebration of the season an estimated fifteen children were presented with large boxes filled with toys and gifts, an annual effort taken on by SkyBahamas. With rosy cheeks and not much of a beard, Captain L. Miller, assisted by Mr. Jamarl Chea and members of the SkyBahamas team, called each child by name and delivered boxes of joy straight into their outstretched hands. The eyes of the children lit up and their smiles sparkled as they patiently waited to hear their names before receiving boxes of joy for Christmas.

Following the presentation, a brief “Thank You” was shyly given by one of the young residents of the home, and gratitude for helping to make their Christmas an exciting one was expressed to Captain Butler and the SkyBahamas team on behalf of the home by Ms. Cindy Moss, a caretaker at Mission Home. “The Christmas season is one for giving to others, and we at SkyBahamas always believe in giving back. On behalf of our CEO, Captain Randy Butler and the SkyBahamas team, it was a great feeling to see the joy we were able to bring the children this Christmas,” stated Captain Miller.

SkyBahamas partnered with the Mission Home in Cat Island following the inaugural flight to the island, and continues to make an effort to provide for the needs of the children whenever possible. SkyBahamas offers flights into Abaco, Cat Island, Grand Bahama, Bimini, Exuma, Long Island and New Providence.
