On Armed Forces Day, Honor Flight Network receives stunning donation from Mission BBQ
Fox News
The Honor Flight Network has been aiding America's veterans by bringing them to memorials and monuments. Now, Mission BBQ announced — on Armed Forces Day, May 21, 2022 — a stunning gift to help keep that good work going. On "Fox & Friends Weekend," Bill Kraus and Steve Newton, co-founders of Mission BBQ, announced a donation of over $500,000.
"May God continue to bless our American military heroes and their families."
"Mission BBQ is the story of a couple of best friends that had a love of barbecue, but more importantly, a love of country — and wanted to build something that meant something," said Bill Kraus.
"And so we did open our first location on Sept. 11, 2011 — to serve, honor and thank our American heroes," he added.
