About Bend Heroes Foundation
Bend nonprofit that built and maintains the Bend Heroes Memorial in Brooks Park, honoring Bend's fallen veterans from World War I to today, and leads the Parade of Flags on patriotic holidays. It has also championed nine border-to-border veterans memorial highways across Oregon through the state legislature.
Volunteering looks like
On Veterans Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, and 9/11, volunteers help install the Parade of Flags, about 275 flags flown over the U.S. Capitol and stitched with veterans' names, along Veterans Memorial Bridge and downtown Bend in the early morning, then take them down in the afternoon. Scouts, JROTC cadets, school teams, families, and anyone else are welcome to help.
