PARTNER SPOTLIGHT

Honor Flight Network

The men and women who’ve served their country transform their history into personal connection for students traveling to Washington, D.C. on class trips. The Honor Flight Network is dedicated to transporting America’s veterans to the country’s capital to see the memorials for wars in which they fought. While visiting sites such as the World War II Memorial on the National Mall, students celebrate and applaud servicemen and women flown in from across the country. Then, as veterans take time for introductions and questions, students establish bonds with another generation and gain new perspectives on what they’ve learned in their classrooms.
