eAs you get ready to celebrate Independence Day and to celebrate America, we have put together some resources for you to use, and a suggested theme of “The Promise of 1776.”
We have a great Flag Waving Guide available to help you plan a short, fun flag waving event, as well as sign suggestions based on the theme that you can use.
We also have a bunch of social media posts that you can use to advocate for American values and defend the American founding. If you do not use social media, you can simply send the images and quotes via email or post them on a website if you have one to help spread the messages.
To utilize these posts, simply right-click a graphic below (on a computer) or hold down your finger (on a mobile device) to bring up the popup menu and select “Copy.” You can then paste the graphic into your social media field (there are different shapes of graphics below for Facebook and Twitter). Finally, repeat the same process to copy the text that we have added below the graphic and paste it into the your post.
