Where every dollar goes

One flight.
Ninety-five veterans.
$115,000.

Each trip carrying approximately ninety-five veterans costs $115,000 — chartered aircraft, D.C. ground transportation, meals, commemorative video, caps, and shirts. Nothing is billed to the veteran. Not a dollar.

It is $1,200 to send one veteran on this trip — covering their plane flights, bus transportation around D.C., food, and other incidental needs. We still have over 100 veterans on our waiting list. Will you help us secure a flight for them?
