Help tell the stories that shaped our history!

Historic Philadelphia, Inc. (HPI) is a non-profit organization that is supported through generous donations. Make your tax-deductible donation today or support one of our four extraordinary programs:

 

  • ONCE UPON A NATION. Most visible through the engaging Storytelling Benches located throughout the Historic Philadelphia area and in Valley Forge Park, Once Upon A Nation also offers visitors a chance to interact with historical players. History Makers, citizens of the 18th & 19th centuries, share their stories, interact with visitors and guide our Adventure Tours.  Click here to DONATE!

 

  • THE BETSY ROSS HOUSE. Build a legacy in one of Philadelphia’s most treasured historic sites by donating a Star Spangled Brick in the Betsy Ross House courtyard. Messages can contain up to three lines with 15 characters per line, including spaces.
