About American Flag City
American Flag City was founded as a nonpartisan service to promote and advocate support for the U.S. Military men and women currently serving our country, honor the Veterans of the United States Armed Forces (past, present and future), and respect for the flag of the United States of America. AFC provides services to individuals, businesses, groups, organizations, and American Cities that individual entities and cities might not be able to afford or accomplish on their own.
Advocacy, Training & Education for Cities, Schools and Organizations
American Flag City is an important advocate for America’s “Flag” cities, Schools & Colleges and Non-profit groups. AFC is involved on a daily basis in activities which promote the “positive and good” of city officials, community leaders and the communities they serve.

These events may be held on a regional, community, or citywide basis. Standard training events include the AFC Annual Conference, AFC Academy for Old Glory, Workshops (Flag Etiquette & Flag Laws) and the AFC Community Development Institute.
