Warrior Travel

Each year Military Friends Foundation has the opportunity to fly home Massachusetts service members for a surprise homecoming for their families, have a final visit before a deployment or other special occasion such as the birth of a baby. If you would like to apply for travel assistance through Military Friends Foundation Warrior Travel please fill out the form below. Grants must be completed in full and incomplete applications will not be considered. Grants are awarded based on funds available and deploying servicemembers and surprise homecomings are given priority. Grants will not exceed $500 and only those who are approved will be contacted.

Grants through this program are part of our outreach grants celebrating and honoring military families. Please share a testimonial about why you are seeking travel (i.e. last visit home before deployment, surprise homecoming, visit for the holidays etc) and what this grant would me to you. Please let us know if this is a surprise homecoming/visit if we can work with you to share your story with local media outlets. If you are selected for a Warrior Travel grant we will share this testimonial with our supporters who have made your travel possible.*
