We are preparing for the inaugural Hawaiian Islands Honor Flight and need your support to help change the lives of our kūpuna Veterans.

Our mission is to honor Hawaiʻi's World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War Veterans by providing them with a memorable trip to Washington, D.C., to visit the memorials built in their honor.

For every Veteran selected to participate, airfare, meals, hotel accommodations, and charter bus transportation are provided completely free of charge.

Your donation helps make this journey possible. Every contribution directly supports the costs associated with transporting and caring for our Veterans during this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Join us in honoring their service, sacrifice, and legacy.

Help make Hawaiian Islands Honor Flight #1 a reality. Donate today and give a Veteran the opportunity to see their memorials and receive the recognition they have earned.

We are excited to share some incredible news — Hawaiian Islands Honor Flight has officially received our 501(c)(3) nonprofit status!

This important step allows us to move forward with full momentum as we prepare to serve our local World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War Veterans. With this approval, all donations to Hawaiian Islands Honor Flight are now tax-deductible, and we can continue building the partnerships, volunteer support, and funding needed to launch our inaugural Honor Flight.

Our mission is simple but powerful: to ensure our Veterans can visit the memorials built in their honor in Washington, D.C., at no cost to them. Every detail of these journeys — airfare, lodging, meals, and ground transportation — is made possible through the generosity of supporters like you.

Now that our nonprofit status is in place, we are:

• Expanding our volunteer and Guardian teams
• Building sponsorships and community partnerships
• Raising funds for Mission #1, planned for October 2026
