Annual giving is the lifeblood that provides essential unrestricted support to advance our educational outreach and programs.

As George Washington understood, not everyone’s purse is of equal size. But support at every level is essential. Since May of 1783, the Society has existed to perpetuate the timeless ideals for which our forebears fought as well as the memory of sacrifices made to achieve American independence. The mission is as important today as it was more than two hundred years ago. By contributing to annual giving, you are honoring our Revolutionary heroes and carrying forward the remembrance of our War for Independence.

• The Society’s educational outreach programs keep the memory and ideals of our Revolutionary heroes alive by providing teachers, students, scholars, and lifelong learners with materials to explore the history and legacy of the American Revolution;

• Our growing library comprises one of the nation’s most important collections of books and manuscripts related to the Revolutionary War available to students and professional scholars, whose publications keep the story of the American Revolution alive; and

• The Society’s museum programs preserve some of the most important artifacts of the Revolution and present the Society’s collections and the story of our War of Independence to the public through exhibitions, lectures, and other special events.

We depend upon contributions to carry out this historic mission assigned to us by the men who won American independence. Your support will make it possible for us to carry out this work. All gifts are important. The Society welcomes contributions of any size to its Annual Giving Campaign.
