Our core mission is to ensure that America’s Purple Heart veterans are never forgotten. In order to honor as many of our heroes as possible, and educate a new generation of Americans about the sacrifice of our Purple Heart recipients, the National Purple Heart Honor Mission will be establishing a traveling exhibition to bring the story of the Purple Heart to the nation. Not everyone can come to the Hall, but we can bring the stories, the history and artifacts from our Purple Heart veterans to communities across America.
This specially designed mobile and accessible platform will enable schoolchildren, veterans groups and local communities to walk through a curated mobile exhibition and access the Roll of Honor. It will provide increased opportunities for veterans to register in the Roll of Honor as we endeavor to include as many of the more than two million Purple Heart recipients in this lasting digital tribute.
We envision the mobile exhibitions to run in the Spring and Summer months and are actively fundraising for this project.
