In order for Honor Flight of Central Oregon (HFCO) to achieve our goal, guardians fly with every veteran on flights providing assistance and helping veterans with a safe, memorable, and rewarding trip. For what you and your comrades have given to our country, please consider this a small token of appreciation from all of us at Honor Flight of Central Oregon (HFCO).
Note: Guardians must be one generation removed from the veteran. Veterans will be assigned a guardian if the veteran does not have one.

Guardian Application
Honor Flight of Central Oregon (HFCO) flights would not be possible without the generous support of our Guardians. Guardians play a significant role on every trip, ensuring that every veteran has a safe and memorable experience. Guardians must be able-bodied and capable of assisting a veteran throughout their trip. Note: Guardians must be one generation removed from the veteran. Veterans will be assigned a guardian if the veteran does not have one.
​
The primary responsibility of a Guardian is the physical safety and security of one or more veterans:
-
Helping up and down stairs
-
Helping on and off buses
-
Pushing wheelchairs up and down ramps
-
Physically handling equipment and baggage
This is a physical, working trip for Guardians to ensure our veterans are served with the dignity and honor they have earned.
​
Guardians are responsible for the cost of their travel with the group $1500.00 (covers air transportation, hotels, meals, etc.).
​
​
Volunteer Application
Honor Flight of Central Oregon (HFCO) would not be possible without the dedicated help of our many volunteers. Assistance is required from office assistance to fundraising, photography, event help etc.
​
Please consider the wide range of volunteer opportunities shown on the Volunteer Application. We are an all volunteer organization and rely on team effort to honor our local veterans.
Thank you for your support.
