See Jacob and his dad go for their flight and catch up with Michael Holland of TVNZ (Seven Sharp)
Thanks again to all of you who participated in Jacob's Journey, we are hoping to get him to his Southern Lights flight late March 2022.
Take care and have a very merry Christmas wonderful people! ❤️ 👨👩👧👦 👨✈️
You did it everybody!
Jacob and his dad will fly side by side in military jet trainers on Seven Sharp from 7PM tonight (30-11-21)
The family were so grateful to all of the charity shown to them.
They were overwhelmed by your generosity and had a wonderful weekend with their entire family in Tauranga last weekend.
See on TV tonight whether you think Jacob and dad (Greg) enjoyed it 😉
Jacob and his dad will fly in parallel this Saturday between Tauranga and Rotorua. The weather is looking good and everybody is super excited.
We will put up some photos on our page www.facebook.com/upliftinkind and be sure to be watching Seven Sharp this weekend as rumour has it they're coming along for the fun!
Jacob got to choose which jet he goes in and he chose metallic blue (number 88) so make sure you look out for him.
To all you lovely donors who have made this a reality for this young man, we can tell you that he and his entire family are so excited and can't wait to make these beautiful memories with their weekend in Tauranga. You have paid for the jet flights, accommodation and they even have some spending money.
You are all so very very kind. X ❤️ 👨👩👧👦
A huge thank you to all of the wonderful donors and the kind and heart felt words that many sent in. Jacob will go flying in the L39 Albatross jet in Tauranga on the weekend of November 13-14 www.fighterjets.nz This will change to a later weekend if the weather is not suitable.
This is going to be an amazing weekend for him and his family with other activities being organised so that they have a wonderful time together.
Thank you all once again - your sense of community and compassion is selfless!
We will update how his weekend goes on our facebook page www.facebook.com/upliftinkind
