GREAT AMERICAN FIRSTS

Posted by Michael Dillihay on

For over two centuries, the “Grand Experiment” known as the United States of America has thrived as a republic, guided by core democratic principles that empower its people. This unique foundation has fueled the nation’s growth and fostered a political culture that values freedom, innovation, entrepreneurship, diversity, inclusion, military strength, and natural beauty. Our tremendous cultural influence stems from the myriad cultures and ethnicities that call America home.

Despite our differences, we share certain self-evident truths. The strength, growth, and expansion of these United States are built on the contributions of countless American pioneers. From being the first to the moon, the first in a family to attend college, or achieving firsts in sports, medicine, technology, entertainment, and education—these milestones rest on the shoulders of those who have propelled America’s greatness.
Today, we celebrate these achievements with the inaugural launch of GREAT AMERICAN FIRST™. Be the first in your community to join this historic celebration of innovation and excellence. Future rollouts will highlight even more remarkable American firsts. In this defining moment of our nation’s journey, we honor our first GREAT AMERICAN FIRST™!
