The "Pay It Forward" Partners
Here are some of the organizations with whom we partner to make a difference.
Military Animal Project
Military Animal Project (MAP) helps veterans heal through animal-assisted programs—service dogs, therapy animals, equine programs, pet support—all at no cost to those who served. MAP supports veterans and families with PTSD, TBI, anxiety & depression, pairing them with animals for comfort, companionship, and therapy.
As part of our commitment, Magellan Jets donates annually to MAP, including donated dog toys and pet supplies, to help further their mission.

Their free services include college and career planning, scholarships, clinical support, and resource coordination, along with targeted programs like the Guaranteed Income Program and holiday assistance to meet urgent family needs.
