Luncheon raises money for research

Sons of the Flag, a Dallas-based organization that supports military, veteran and first responder burn survivors and their families through funding for innovative research, treatment and education, held its fifth annual Stars & Stripes Luncheon and Film Festival recently at Brook Hollow Golf Club. The luncheon served as a kick off for the organization’s Stars & Stripes Film Festival, presented by Stripe-A-Zone. The film festival was held at Highland Park Village Theater. Together, the luncheon and film festival raised $250,000 for Sons of the Flag and its work on behalf of military, first responder and civilian burn victims.
