The world was in shock and New York City was stunned after the attack on the World Trade Center.
There was a sense for so many of “What can I do? How can I help?”
In Portland, a group of friends came up with an answer – a sort of bicoastal group hug and a message of support for New York and New Yorkers.
With the support of Delta Airlines and some major hotel chains, the put together the Flight for Freedom.
And a Sisters couple helped launch those planes.
Sallly Bourrie has written a book about the Flight for Freedom called “Oregon Loves New York.“
