HONOR FLIGHT SOUTHLAND IS A 501(C) (3) NON-PROFIT 100% VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATION CREATED SOLELY TO HONOR AMERICA’S VETERANS FOR ALL THEIR SACRIFICES. WE SAFELY TRANSPORT OUR HEROES TO WASHINGTON DC TO VISIT AND REFLECT AT THEIR MEMORIALS. TOP PRIORITY IS GIVEN TO THE SENIOR VETERANS – WORLD WAR II SURVIVORS, ALONG WITH THOSE OTHERS WHO MAY BE TERMINALLY ILL. OF ALL THE WARS IN RECENT MEMORY, IT WAS WWII THAT TRULY THREATENED OUR VERY EXISTENCE AS A NATION – AND AS A CULTURALLY DIVERSE, FREE SOCIETY. ACCORDING TO THE DEPARTMENT OF VETERAN AFFAIRS, AN ESTIMATED 860 WWII VETERANS DIE EACH DAY. IN 2015, OUR YOUNGEST WWII VETERAN IS 87 YEARS OLD, MOST ARE WELL INTO THEIR 90’S. OUR TIME TO EXPRESS OUR THANKS TO THESE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN IS RUNNING OUT. HONOR FLIGHT SOUTHLAND IS OUR WAY OF PAYING A SMALL TRIBUTE TO THOSE WHO GAVE SO MUCH – A MEMORABLE, SAFE AND REWARDING TOUR OF HONOR!Honor Flight Southland was created for the veterans located in the Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernardino Counties. Our tours in Washington DC consist of 3 days and include roundtrip airfare, accomodations and meals provided to our veterans. It costs approximately $2,000.00 to take one veteran back to DC. Our first trip is in June and we will be taking 20 veterans. We are currently fundraising for our next trip which is October 23-25, 2015. On this tour, we plan to take between 75-80 veterans.We are an accredited charity. Your donation will help transport veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit THEIR memorials. Our top priority is our nation's most senior heroes. World War II veterans waited patiently for over 65 years for a memorial that recognizes their service and accomplishments. The World War II Memorial also recognizes the ultimate sacrifices of their friends who never made it home. Similarly, Korean and Vietnam Veterans have been waiting for years to see their memorial as well. They ALL deserve this one last opportunity to visit America's "Thank You." Tours are simply not possible without public support. Prior to Honor Flight Network, our veterans had given up all hope of ever seeing their Memorials. Now they have hope… but time is not on our side.The time to act is NOW!In another 5-7 years almost all of our World War II veterans will be gone. This tour is their "last hurrah" - the last time they will be recognized as the conquering victors that collectively and literally saved the world. To this day most of Europe is free, most of the Pacific is free and America is free. This freedom came at a very high cost. We can never repay them for what they've done. An “Honor Flight Tour” is simply a small token of our appreciation for everything they've done. Throughout their Honor Flight Network tour, the Veterans are thanked, recognized and admired for their service. They come home personally knowing how much their country loves them and respects them. Veterans will never forget this gratitude and adoration.Please help us rewrite this final chapter of their lives. Our American Veterans deserve nothing less. Equal priority is given to any terminally ill veteran who has never visited their Memorials. If America thought it was important to build a memorial to their service and sacrifice, Honor Flight Network believes it's important for them to visit their memorial before it's too late.If you are a veteran or know a veteran that would be interested in going one of our trips, please visit our website at www.honorflightsouthland.org to fill out the application. We would love to have you join us on a future trip. We are also accepting applications for guardians to accompany and help chaperon the veterans while we travel across the country to see their memorials.
