Celebrating Global Volunteer Month: 100 years of service in action

As we commemorate our Centennial year, Delta’s annual Global Volunteer Month campaign took on extraordinary meaning—offering a powerful reflection of our people, our purpose and our promise to the global communities we serve. This April, employees worldwide came together to lead with heart, completing over 100 volunteer events in honor of 100 years of flight.

From packing meals and mentoring youth to cleaning coastlines and donating life-saving blood, Delta people demonstrated the spirit of servant leadership that fuels our airline every day.

Throughout the month, more than 4,400 Delta volunteers completed 155 community events and over 8,600 hours of service around the world. Across 48 markets, 8 countries (Greece, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Japan, India, the U.S. and the UK) 4 continents, 40 U.S. cities and 23 states – whether 5 or 150 volunteers were needed – Delta people showed up to give back. 

We also celebrated nearly 100 Super Volunteers who went above and beyond in 2024, generously giving hours of their time and talent to a host of causes around the world.

“At Delta, we recognize that our success is deeply intertwined with the wellbeing of the communities we serve,” said Alicia Tillman, Chief Marketing Officer at Delta Air Lines. “Our people will always be the Delta Difference, and we will continue our efforts to serve our communities in which we live and work for the next 100 years.”

With service to 290 destinations on 6 continents, we are inspired by the compassion and commitment our employees demonstrate every day to customers and to one another. Airlines connect cultures, economies and people, but at Delta, we recognize that our success is deeply intertwined with the wellbeing of the communities we serve. It is a powerful reminder that we are all connected, a message reflected in Delta’s latest brand campaign where every route leads to common ground. 

As we look forward to the next century of flight, we continue deepening our impact and influence—in the sky and on the ground. Together, we’re flying toward purpose, united by a shared mission to be a force for good wherever we go.

Through volunteerism, we support education, sustainability, equity and wellness initiatives that make a lasting impact far beyond a single event. For more information on Community Engagement at Delta Air Lines, please visit Delta.com/Community.
