Foundation Prepares to Commemorate America’s 250th Birthday
This year, we celebrate two milestones: Grand Rapids’ 175th year and America’s 250th anniversary.
We are inviting every member of our community to reflect on the experiences of the people who came before us and unite to build a better future for the next generations.
The Ford Presidential Foundation is joining several organizations in Grand Rapids in marking America’s semiquincentennial (250th) birthday. You can look forward to several events over the next year to celebrate “A250.”
