Give what you can for Honor Flights

Al Perry, coordinator of the Central Valley Honor Flight, stated that flights for veterans to Washington, D.C., are planned in June, September and October. But only the June trip is fully funded; the final two trips are dependent upon fundraising goals being met.

This goal can be accomplished for our deserving veterans if each one of us in the Fresno/Clovis area donates $1 to Honor Flight. Please send your contribution to Fresno Community Regional Foundation, 5260 N. Palm Ave., Suite 122, Fresno, CA 93704.

These flights are not funded by the local Veterans Administration.

Mary Ann Gamegan-Richardson, Clovis
