Guardian Application

Please note that this application will put you on the waitlist to serve as a Guardian flying from Sioux Falls, South Dakota

NOTICE: This is the GUARDIAN APPLICATION; Veterans and Volunteers will find a separate application online. Guardians must be at least age 16 at the time of the flight and may NOT be the spouse or significant other of a Veteran on flight.

Midwest Honor Flight would not be successful 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. Duties include physically assisting the Veteran at the airport, during the flight and at the memorials. We ask that Guardians come up with a minimum donation of whatever the cost of your plane ticket is. Our flight is chartered and prices vary by time of year - amount will be announced when you are selected for a flight. Your donation allows us to continue sending our Veterans for free. Guardians should be intellectually, physically, and emotionally capable of caring for their veteran. We reserve the right to refuse any guardian application.
