America Gives

Pledge to volunteer in 2026

Help us make the Semiquincentennial a record setting year of volunteer service. Whether you’ll be volunteering for the first time or challenging yourself to do more, join people across the country in committing to give back to honor America’s 250th. Make your pledge today.

Honor the Semiquincentennial by giving back in your community

America Gives is an initiative that challenges businesses, non-profits, schools, youth groups, faith-based networks, and organizations of all kinds to commit to increasing their level of volunteering and impact starting on Jan 1, 2026. Together, we will build on America’s legacy of giving back and inspire a renewed culture of service for years to come.
