Inspired by his cousin's battle with cancer, 19-year-old pilot Ethan Guo is embarking on a historic solo flight across all seven continents to raise $1 million for cancer research and awareness through St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Donate & Support!ContactI am Ethan Guo, a 19-year-old Asian American pilot. I want to become the first person in history to fly solo to all seven continents in a small aircraft and raise $1 million for cancer research.
My passion for aviation began at the age of 13. I earned my private pilot license at 17. I am IFR-rated, which means that I can fly using instruments alone, without visual ground reference. I have flown to all 48 contiguous US states and crossed the Atlantic three times, amassing over 700 hours of flight time.
In 2021 my cousin was diagnosed with cancer. I admire him. He inspired me to take life more seriously and join the fight against cancer. I want to use every opportunity to raise awareness of childhood cancer and the necessity to increase research efforts to find prevention and treatment methods. You can support this cause, too, by donating here.
Cancer's impact on children inspired me to take action after my cousin's diagnosis, leading me to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in their mission to advance pediatric cancer research and treatment. While more than 80% of children with cancer survive in the United States, less than 20% survive in many developing countries - a disparity St. Jude is working to eliminate. By donating to St. Jude, you can help ensure that children everywhere have access to lifesaving cancer treatments and a chance at a healthy future.
