Origins HONOR AMERICA, a program originally sponsored by the American Historic and Cultural Society, Inc., of Washington, DC, was started by the Reverend Billy Graham, Bob Hope, J. Willard Marriott and Hobart Lewis as a one-time, one-day event held in the nation's capital on July 4, 1970. Its purpose was to show the citizens of the United States and the people of the world in general that there are many things right with this nation despite the adverse effect of then current events and much unrest in the country at that time. The event was so successful, it was decided to make it an annual affair. Later it was expanded to a twenty-one day celebration, from Flag Day (June 14) through Independence Day (July 4) with the title: A TWENTY-ONE DAY SALUTE TO THE NATION. The HONOR AMERICA idea was picked up spontaneously in other parts of the country, including Melbourne, Florida. Organization in Melbourne HONOR AMERICA, Inc., is a product of the original Washington, DC project.
