GREENSBORO, N.C. — Samaritan’s Purse dedicated a new plane at its new response center Tuesday, celebrating being able to send supplies and volunteers to help those in disasters across the world.

Pilot Andrew Klischer debuted the new Boeing 757 aircraft, which will be used to haul freight to help people across the world.

“We do. We deliver international disaster relief around the world, in Jesus’ name,” Klischer said.

This new aircraft will help Samaritan’s Purse be faster and more prepared than before.

“We not only fill the void and the need for, um, the normal stuff, shelter, and water and food and all those things,” Klischer said.

But they also fill the void of hope.

“When we show up, we bring hope. And that's the biggest thing. You know, my every flight that I've ever done with Samaritan's Purse has meant more to me than just flying a jet,” Klischer said.

Klischer is a former commercial pilot flying passenger and freight aircrafts for 51 years. But, he’s only been flying for Samaritian’s Purse for three years.

“It's my happy place. I love to fly. But being able to do that with a purpose, for a reason, for to do good, it adds. It makes my job much more, much more important to me,” Klischer said.

And over the three years with Samaritan's Purse he’s been able to help thousands of people by dropping off much-needed food and supplies.

“Going into places like Mekele in Ethiopia, where there were 40,000 people standing around the perimeter of the airport that had no food. We got to bring food. We got to bring hygiene kits, cooking utensils, shelter, plastic, all the things that these people were desperately needing,” Klischer said.

He's continuing doing what he loves with a purpose.

“I get to go fly. That's what I started doing a long time ago. Still makes me happy,” Klischer said.

Recently, Samaritan’s Purse used its DC-8 and Boeing 757 to quickly send relief to Maui. It also offered help in Florida when Hurricane Idalia hit.
