Giving Back

Property Automation believes that giving back to the community is an investment in a happier, healthier world for future generations. We encourage our employees to donate what time and resources they have available on an individual level, as we do on the corporate level. We are hopeful that our social awareness, concern and generosity indicate that we will never take our successes for granted. The following organization is just one to which we lend substantial support by making contributions of time, service and financial resources.

Angel Flight is the only nationwide organization of volunteer pilots, who donate their time to transport patients in need of specialized treatment unavailable locally. As one of 1,200 pilots in the South Central Division, president and CEO Jacob Garza has flown many medical missions. Following the widespread destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana, Garza also volunteered for a mission carrying much needed supplies to aid hurricane victims.

In addition to medical flights, AFSC also:

Maintains stand-by lists of pilots for organ transplant recipients

Provides emergency transportation in the event of a national disaster or terrorist attack

Reunites families of wounded soldiers returning from active duty

Supplies free flights to special needs camps

Flies other missions of compassion, on a case-by-case basis

AFSC territory covers Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, eastern New Mexico, western Mississippi and Tennessee. Since its founding in 1991, AFSC has flown more than 12,500 Angel Flights. As one of six regional organizations comprising Angel Flight America (AFA), AFSC links to other regions for flights up to 1,000 miles.
