How It Began

The American Tribute is a firework salute and poem created in 2001 by a North Carolina family to unite us in a time of grief, and to celebrate our nation.

The Story Unfolds

The American Tribute firework salute was incorporated into Fourth of July events from San Francisco to New York harbor.

The Impact of the Message

The American Tribute poem was read at many of the events, and the stanza spread across the country.

The American Tribute Stanza

Red, for the blood of many heroes shed;

White, for freedom's light still shining bright; and

Blue, for the courage to stand tall and true!

We forget what is important to remember

Lack of Unity is a greater problem today than ever before in our nation’s history

Unmarked Memorials are what we call every American flag without a call to remember

The Problem

Making flag displays across the country a memorial, a unifying reminder, is our goal

Cast metal markers with the Tribute stanza are the symbols we are using
