About HOFPFLA
 HE
Hereditary Order of the Families of the Presidents
and First Ladies of America is genealogical, historical,
and fraternal in nature. Its membership endeavors
to foster patriotism and to enlarge the knowledge
of its membership through:
-
the collection of information
concerning the Presidents and First Ladies of
America;
-
the dissemination of such information
to the Order's membership, and eventually to other
interested persons and organizations;
-
the building of a body of genealogical
records showing descent from the Presidents and
First Ladies, and their American ancestors; and
-
the creation of a spirit of good
fellowship and friendship among members through
meetings and other means, inherent in these purposes.
The order was founded in Washington,
DC, April 6, 2003, by thirteen men and women who
all had in common that they could claim, with proof,
a lineal or collateral blood relationship with an
American President or First Lady. Today the Order
continues to attract others with similar proven claims,
and is comprised of Annual, Life, Memorial and Junior Members.
The Order makes periodic donations
to other Section 501(c)(3) organizations and entities
that focus on the history and the preservation of historical
documents and artifacts relative to the offices of
the President and First Lady.
