The Collier-Lee
Honor Flight Mission
Honoring Our Veterans One Flight at a Time
Collier-Lee Honor Flight's mission is to transport local veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials dedicated to honoring their service and sacrifice. Established on September 25, 2013, the organization was created to bring the national Honor Flight program to the Collier County, Florida, area. Our inaugural flight took place just six weeks later, on November 9, 2013, and was a resounding success.
These trips are made possible entirely through the dedication of volunteers and are provided at no cost to the veterans. Priority is given to our most senior veterans—especially World War II survivors—and to any veteran facing a terminal illness who wish to visit their memorial. All other veterans are eligible for upcoming flights on a chronological basis.
At Collier-Lee Honor Flight, our mission is powered entirely by volunteers—dedicated individuals who receive no financial compensation for their time or service. We receive no federal, state, or local funding; instead, we rely solely on the generous donations of individuals, families, and businesses from our local community and beyond.
Your donation goes directly toward honoring our veterans by sending them to Washington, D.C., where they visit the memorials dedicated to their service and sacrifice. This unforgettable journey is completely free for the veterans, made possible through your support.
Thanks to your generosity, we can continue offering this meaningful experience—what we call their "One Last Mission." It is our privilege to escort them to our nation’s capital, giving them the chance to reflect, connect, and find closure at the memorials built in their honor.
Every veteran deserves this final opportunity to experience "America's Thank You."
