About Honor Flight Historic Triangle Virginia
|
|
Honor Flight Historic Triangle Virginia (HFHTVA) is a Williamsburg-based non-profit organization established in October 2008 with one goal: To take every World War II and terminally ill veteran in the Hampton Roads area that is able and has not visited the World War II Memorial built in their honor on a charter bus day trip to Washington, DC. In addition to the WWII Memorial, other scheduled stops include Arlington National Cemetery and the Iwo Jima, Korean War, and/or Vietnam War Memorials. Box meals are served for breakfast and lunch and there is a tour and sit-down dinner at the National Museum of the Marine Corps prior to returning home. All veterans on the trip are accompanied by a trained volunteer guardian, who will assist the veteran for the entire day, and a staff of certified Emergency Medical Technicians / Paramedics to ensure everyone’s safety throughout the trip.
There is no charge to the veterans as they paid for it through their dedicated service to our great nation more than sixty years ago. We do not accept donations from our veteran participants, however, persons and/or organizations interested in donating to HFHTVA should visit the *Donations* link on the main menu bar at the top of this page. HFHTVA is 501(c) 3 organization and all contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. We use 100% of the donations received for the expenses of the program.
HFHTVA does not have any paid employees and is staffed strictly with volunteers from the Hampton Roads, VA area who are dedicated to honoring our nations’ veterans. For individuals and groups in the community that would like to assist or provide financial and/or in-kind donations, please Contact Us via e-mail at HonorFlightHTVA@cavtel.net or by phone at 877-424-VETS (please note we do not have a live phone operator).
