Our Purpose

Midwest Veterans Fundraising Group, 501 (C)3 non-profit organization based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Our mission is to honor our veterans with respect and gratitude for their service to our nation.

Formed by a dedicated group of local business owners, our goal is to raise funds for specific local and regional veterans programs in South Dakota, SW Minnesota, NE Nebraska and NW Iowa.

Midwest Honor Flight

The FIRST Annual Freedom Festival will be raising money for the Midwest Honor Flight – with a mission to transport America’s Veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit those memorials dedicated to honor the service and sacrifices of themselves and to fellow Veterans.

The goal of the Midwest Veterans Fundraising Group and the Freedom Festival is to raise enough funds to fill one Honor Flight, which is $175,000.
