life can change in a moment,
you decide.
Vision
Simply, to lift people up! Founded by South Pole explorer and Spinal Cord Injured adventurer, Grant Korgan and his wife Shawna Korgan, the foundation’s vision has two missions. The first mission is to positively impact individuals who have been through life challenges, to gain a renewed perspective, via the experience of aviation. The foundation’s second mission is achieved by funding the creation of inspirational media content which illuminates the magic of empowering storytelling.
Mission
The Moment Foundation utilizes Pilot & Spinal Cord Injury survivor Grant Korgan to fly others (life-altering injury survivors, first responders, military vets) who need a change in perspective, on heart-opening humanitarian missions. Additionally, the Foundation creates inspirational media content, aimed at inspiring adult and youth initiatives.
Initiatives
The Moment Foundation executes aviation-related humanitarian missions and creates inspirational media. The foundation’s 2022 missions are:
• Hero Flights Missions
• Humanitarian Missions (Pilots N Paws & Angel Flight)
• Media Production: Hero Flights & Inspirational Documentary effort
Empower others to hold a big vision for their life.
It started on day one, as a starry-eyed kid who was blessed to grow up in a mountainous playground – adventure always empowered my life. Decade after decade, the lessons of challenge and triumph the outdoors levied on me, shaped my understanding of life and how to move through it. Having the driven courage to leave the comforts of home and answer the call of adventure has been a lifelong study in growth, massive action and deep personal development. This committed act of sedentary defiance is the secret sauce I use each day to overcome the intensities of living with a spinal cord injury. Having said the above… LIVING ALL OUT in the fulfillment and actualization of my dreams, is the life I choose!
Empower others to hold a big vision for their life
As a rated pilot, Grant Korgan routinely takes wounded veterans, injured athletes, first responders and individuals who need a change of perspective on scenic flights around Lake Tahoe, from his home airport, in Truckee California. As a man who has sustained a life-altering spinal cord injury, the conversations that happen in the air, away from life’s gravity, curate the gifts of freedom, joy, choice, sovereignty, release and the simple happiness that comes from leaving the ground to talk about everything…or nothing. These one on-one positive impacts in life’s third dimension leave an indelibly positive mark on a person’s psyche.
