Support Patriots’ Day and 250th Events

Give 250 for the 250th Anniversary!

The 250th anniversary of the beginning of our nation’s birth is coming up on July 4, 2026 and we need your support! Donate to the Friends of Minute Man National Park today. Your gift will ensure that anniversary events at Minute Man National Historical Park continue to flourish as we commemorate the 250th Anniversary throughout 2026.

The 251st Anniversary of Patriots’ Day will take place in April 2026, with free public activities and programs. We expect record-breaking attendance this year and the park needs your support more than ever. 250th Anniversary events this year include the Knox Trail, Remember the Ladies, 4th of July, New York Campaign, Privateers in Salem, and Winter & War.

Your gift provides critical assistance to the park and supports training and supplies for volunteer reenactors who bring these living history events to life. Your donation also ensures the historical accuracy of events by funding historical clothing and black powder for the popular musket and cannon firing demonstrations. Please help us defray the significant costs of these free public activities.

Your gift will support the park, volunteer reenactors, and free public Patriots’ Day activities, and 250th anniversary events.

We appreciate gifts at any level, but please consider giving $250 or more for the 250th! Donations of $1000 or more are considered Leadership Circle gifts, and you receive special benefits, including a limited edition 250th Anniversary commemorative coin.
