The Isle of Man's Children's Hospice Rebecca House has got the fundraising year off to a flying start.
It's been named as Manx2.com's chosen charity of 2009.
Staff at the airline are promising to back the venture, supporting a series of sponsored events and fundraisers throughout the coming year.
As a first donation, 25 pairs of return tickets to anywhere on Manx2.com's network have been handed to hospice, for use as auction and raffle prizes.
Chief Executive at Hospice Margaret Simpson says it's a great boost (audio file attached):
