Support The Honor Flight
2d Lt de Souza and A1C de Souza welcoming our veterans at Reagan International
Dear friends,
“What an honor it is to shake the hands of heroes! Every time I have the opportunity, I get involved. Donate and show our war veterans your appreciation and love. Support the Honor Flight!”
Paul de Souza, CSFI Founder
www.csfi.us
Mission: To transport America’s Veterans to Washington, DC to visit those memorials dedicated to honor the service and sacrifices of themselves and their friends.
Honor Flight Network is a non-profit organization created solely to honor America’s veterans for all their sacrifices. They transport our heroes to Washington, D.C. to visit and reflect at their memorials. Top priority is given to the senior veterans – World War II survivors, along with those other veterans who may be terminally ill.
Of all of the wars in recent memory, it was World War II that truly threatened our very existence as a nation—and as a culturally diverse, free society. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, an estimated 640 WWII veterans die each day. Our time to express our thanks to these brave men and women is running out.
