West Bend, Wi – Mark the date on your calendar and bring your appetite to the little red shed at 1435 W. Washington Street in West Bend, WI, on Friday, May 15, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. On that day, Albiero Plumbing and HVAC will be sponsoring a fundraiser brat and hot dog fry to bring awareness and financial support to the Honor Flight Network.
According to the Honor Flight Network mission statement, “Honor Flight Network is a national nonprofit organization comprised of independent hubs working together to achieve the Honor Flight mission. In furtherance of this common goal, we have the enormous privilege of showing our nation’s veterans the appreciation and honor they deserve.
Participation in an Honor Flight trip gives veterans the opportunity to share this momentous occasion with other comrades, remember the fallen, and share their stories and experiences with other veterans. Honored veterans always travel free of charge, thanks to generous donations to our organization.
While initially focused solely on America’s World War II era veterans, Honor Flight Network has expanded its mission to include those who served during the Korean War and the Vietnam War eras. The Honor Flight TLC program also honors veterans of any service era who are critically ill.”
Many veterans from the Washington County and surrounding areas have had the opportunity to participate in the Honor Flight program.
Albiero Plumbing and HVAC is proud to be a sponsor of this fundraising event and will match all donations from the lunch. All proceeds will go directly to the Honor Flight Network.
Additionally, all veterans and active duty military eat free that day.
For those who simply wish to donate, a bucket will be provided at the event.
Your generosity will show America’s veterans the honor, gratitude and the community of support that they deserve.
It is truly moving to read about the dedicated mission of the Honor Flight Network and their commitment to showing veterans the appreciation they deserve. The fact that these heroes travel at no cost is a testament to the community’s respect for their service and sacrifice. Providing a space where veterans can connect with comrades and share their stories is such a vital part of the healing and remembrance process. This program clearly offers a life-changing experience for those in Washington County and across the nation.
