Congratulations to the Lucky Winners of the KWMF Lottery

On November 11, Veterans Day, at the Golden Gate Grill Restaurant in San Francisco, KWMF held the drawing for the lottery we have been running for the past few months. There were four First Prize winners, each receiving one pair of round-trip tickets to any Virgin America domestic destination. We at KWMF wish to express our gratitude to Virgin America for generously providing us with these flight vouchers to support our Foundation.
