Our Work and Philosophy

Angels Without Wings, Inc. is a non-profit 501 (c) 3 corporation dedicated to giving relief to the poor, the distressed or underprivileged, and honoring those people and groups who help others, or help animals that are in need. We also honor animals that have served this country during war and peacetime. It was conceived on the notion that it only takes one person to make a difference, and how, with a little bit of one’s time, ingenuity and effort, we all can be Angels if we try. Gandhi’s quote, “You must be the change you want to see in the world,” is the backbone of our philosophy. 

Our main thrust is to make the public aware of the different people and groups that are doing these great deeds, and to sponsor activities for the purpose of supporting other nonprofit charities – and to show the world that it doesn’t take much to make a change in a person’s life, or to help an innocent animal. 

Our goal is for everyone to “Be the Change,” and to show that it really isn’t that hard to do – that each day, with a simple act of kindness, we can all be an Angel to somebody.  

Another goal is to lend a greater voice to these people and groups doing great public service and humanitarian work. 

What we do - A little act of kindness goes a long way

Here on our website, and by our example, we will show that everyone can become an Angel by deciding that every day if you can find one simple way to be kind to someone, or lend a hand, or help an animal in need – even it it’s just to open the door for someone, or help an elderly person across the street, or tend to a stray animal – that kindness can create a tiny ripple that will one day become a mighty current of change.

Honoring those who serve others

Through our community bulletin board we will have people nominate “Angels” in their own community. We would like to feature each month an “Angel of the Month” – someone who is doing unique and incredible work in the service of others - and feature that person’s organization and how people can volunteer and support that group if they are so inclined. And at the end of the year the public can vote on their favorite “Angel”, and that Angel will not only receive an award, but a small a donation to their work.  

Honoring animals who have served - Animals in War & Peace

There are several projects that have expanded our work honoring our four-legged and winged heroes substantially: MEDALS, MONUMENTS and a MUSEUM.
