THE 917 SOCIETY CONNECTS OUR COUNTRY TO ITS CONSTITUTION NASHVILLE, TN: The 917 Society is excited to announce its 2022 expansion into all 50 states thanks to its partnerships with community organizations notably including American Veterans (“AMVETS”), a non partisan volunteer-led society formed by United States World War II veterans. The 917 Society is a 501(c)3 organization advocating for enhanced education across the United States and fulfilling its mission: to annually honor and celebrate Constitution Day on September 17th. By virtue of Federal mandate 108-447, the 917 Society supports 8th-grade classrooms in communities within each of the fifty States. As part of its dedicated service, the 917 Society provides individual pocket sized copies of the United States Constitution to students and teachers alike, along with other free educational materials. In this way, the 917 Society provides the resources necessary to educate America’s youth and equip its future leaders for certain success. Thanks to its donors and partner organizations, the 917 Society is achieving a national dream of building a foundational understanding of the core Constitutional values common to each of fifty states. The 917 Society serves public, private, and home-schooled students, and encourages all 8th-grade educators and related staff to email the 917 Society to place free orders of the student materials and resources it offers.
