NATIONAL FLAG FOUNDATION

Working together with you to preserve our national heritage for the next generation of Americans.

Mission

National Flag Foundation's mission is to promote a deeper appreciation of our nation's founding principles and its first and principle emblem, the Flag of the United States of America, by serving as a primary resource for patriotic and flag education. Since 1968, we've built upon this one simple yet vitally important premise. We've done more to amplify the message and the meaning of the flag than perhaps any organization in history.

Distinguished Endorsements

"Works like this can only increase our love for this land of liberty and for the flags of American history that tell us freedom's story." - Ronald Reagan
"I feel it is a tremendous privilege to become one of your members." - Orrin Hatch, U.S. Senator from Utah
"I commend National Flag Foundation for taking the initiative to provide students of all ages with an important guide to citizenship and civic responsibility." - Lamar Alexander, Former U.S. Secretary of Education
"The flag is our Nation's greatest emblem, and I salute the patriotic spirit of all of you associated with the National Flag Foundation." - George Bush

Since 1968, National Flag Foundation has worked tirelessly to promote a deeper understanding and appreciation of the American flag and our nation's founding principles.

The popularity of NFF's materials is reflected by the fact that more than 200 million pieces of the foundation's patriotic literature is in schools, libraries and homes throughout America. Additionally, NFF's headquarters - Flag Plaza - is home to the foundation's world-class flag/flag-history library, which provides invaluable ongoing services in support of "Old Glory-"

NFF is very proud that millions of Americans know that "National Flag Foundation" is the answer to the question "Who's minding our flag?"
