Got some leftover FF miles laying around that may expire soon, or may never be enough for a free ticket?

Maybe a few thousand miles sitting on that airline FF account that you don't fly on anymore due to changing jobs, retiring, or dumping the wife?

Take 30 minutes and look up those old FF accounts that you had forgotten about.

You might find something that would help a US soldier or their family.

Check out "Hero Miles" at Fisher House -- Helping Military Families (http://www.fisherhouse.org/programs/heroMiles)

Let's find out what our fledgling Vette Barn can do by the end of 2009!

Here is our start....

16,000 miles on Alaska Airlines donated to Hero Miles, 11/14/2009.

Can we get this up to 50,000 total miles by years end?

Running Total: 16,000 miles donated

10,000 miles on United donated to Hero Miles on 11/15/09. :thumbs:

I will check into NWA when I get home, I should have some 'stale' points there.

Figured out the NWA thing.

Note: You don't have to have a WorldPerk account. Since NWA and Delta merged, you can log-in with your Delta info and donate via the link on the Info page.

15,000 donated to Fisher Foundation on NWA

:thumbs:

I will also donate all United miles accumulated from my United flights to and from Japan coming up later this month. :yesnod:
