Teens plan Fly-a-Thon for Colorado shooting victims

By Janice Wood · August 13, 2012 ·

A Florida non-profit, Teens-N-Flight, is planning a “fly-a-thon” from its headquarters in Florida to Aurora, Colo., hoping to raise up to $10,000 to help the families of the 12 people killed and 58 others who were injured last month at a Colorado movie theater, according to a report in the Daytona Beach News Journal. The group is seeking pledges of $2 a mile for the 1,310-mile trip.
