Culver’s Locations in North Dakota and Minnesota to Host Fundraiser for Veterans Honor Flight

Culver’s restaurants in North Dakota and Minnesota are planning a community fundraiser to support the Veterans Honor Flight of ND/MN, a regional branch of the national Honor Flight Network that transports veterans to Washington, D.C., to visit memorials honoring their service. The event is designed to raise both awareness and operating funds for upcoming trips.

How the Fundraiser Works

Participating Culver’s locations will donate a portion of designated sales during the event period to the Veterans Honor Flight of ND/MN. Organizers encouraged community members to dine in or order takeout on the specified day, knowing that a slice of their purchase will go toward covering travel expenses for veterans, many of whom are elderly and require medical support during the journey.

Why Support Matters

Honor Flight trips are free for veterans, and costs are covered entirely through donations and local fundraising efforts. Each veteran is typically accompanied by a guardian, and expenses include airfare, charter bus transportation in Washington, meals, and medical staff. Community-driven events like the Culver’s partnership play a significant role in keeping the program accessible.

Ways to Get Involved

• Dine at a participating Culver’s on the fundraiser day.
• Spread the word to friends, family, and local veteran groups.
• Consider additional direct donations to the Veterans Honor Flight of ND/MN.
