FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) - Leaders with the Honor Flight Northeast Indiana (HFNEI) have organized a fundraiser Thursday evening to help fund future flights to honor area veterans.
From 4 to 9 p.m. Thursday at the Outback Steakhouse on Coventry Lane, organizers say the public is invited to dine in or order carryout to support HFNEI. They say all you have to do is show the below flyer to have 15% of your order’s total given to the group.
