Celebrate America's 250th Anniversary with Beaver County

On July 4, 2026, our nation will commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States. The journey toward this historic milestone is an opportunity to pause and reflect on our nation’s past, honor the contributions of all Americans, and look ahead toward the future we want to create for the next generation and beyond. The 250th Commemoration allows Pennsylvanians the opportunity to showcase its amazing people, places, and businesses that make us #PAPROUD. To capture the best the Commonwealth has to offer, it requires a statewide effort.

In recognition of the United States’ 250th anniversary, America250 Beaver County is launched a grant program to support boroughs, townships, cities, non-profit organizations, etc to help create special events, programming, public art, heritage projects, community celebrations, and more throughout 2026. These grants are intended to spark innovation, strengthen local identity, encourage tourism, and elevate Beaver County’s presence during this once-in-a-generation milestone.
