Women have long been involved in Memorial Hermann Life Flight®. Marguerite Badger helped start the program with Dr. Red Duke in 1976. She was affectionately called the “First Lady of Life Flight."
Currently there are about two dozen women who serve at almost every level of the Life Flight team.
ExxonMobil generously donated $5 million recently to Life Flight® to support a newly launched $55 million campaign to fund the purchase of four new helicopters and a specialty aircraft to replace its current, aging fleet. The new fleet – expected to take flight in 2025 – will expand Life Flight’s service area to a 250-mile radius of Houston’s Texas Medical Center (TMC) to serve more people in need of critical air ambulance transport.
Life Flight has flown more than 166,000 missions since its inaugural flight.
