WDAY Honor Flight is no longer accepting applications for future trips.  However, you can still apply on the National Honor Flight Website at http://www.honorflight.org/.   There are many locations around the country conducting these trips and we hope other groups in Minnesota and North Dakota consider organizing a trip for the World War II Veterans in their community.

WDAY WWII HONOR FLIGHT TO TAKE “BONUS” TRIP in Spring 2008

We Need Your Help

To make this fourth and final Honor Flight a reality we still need your help. By the time the third Honor Flight departed our combined fundraising efforts had brought in almost half of the money needed to make a fourth Honor Flight possible. Since that time contributions have continued to trickle in - but at a much slower pace. We still need to raise roughly $50,000.00 to make this fourth and final flight a reality.

If your business or group would like to set-up a fundraiser to help us reach our goal, please call Lance Akers our fundraising coordinator at (701) 238-9298 Please call prior to planning and scheduling your fundraiser. By informing us of your plans it will help us better track and project our fundraising needs. In addition to that, we may be able to help you promote your event.
