Flag Keepers Projects Information Volunteers Needed
Area Manager The Area Manager will have responsibility for an area with a population of approximately 50,000. In that area there may be one or more Local Flag Keepers that report to the Area Manager. There may be one or more Project Managers who report to the Area Manager. Or, an Area Manager's duties might include those of one or more Project Manager's responsibilities. Typically this would depend on Flag Keepers activity in that particular geographic area.
Local Flag Keeper The most basic Flag Keepers Project consists of folks who note the condition of unservicable flags in their local area, or as they travel around America. When they find an unserviceable they report the flag's condition via our website or mail in the report. If you would like information about volunteering to report on local flags, please contact julia@flagkeepers.org.
Over The Road Project (OTR)
Tens of thousands of American Flags are displayed along the nation's highways. For a variety of reasons, many fall into neglect. And some are so neglected that they become rags. The OTR Project drivers spot unserviceable flags, note their condition, and report the flags via our website or mail in the report.
If you are a professional driver and would like information about joining the OTR Project please contact art@flagkeepers.org.

Flag Disposal Project
An individual, small group or organization can dispose of an American flag as long as the ceremony is respectful and relatively private proceeding (invited guests). This disposal ceremony should not be a dog and pony show especially with local officials or politicians that use this somber occasion as an opportunity to be seen and heard by the public. Flag Disposal Project Manager
1. Spread the word in his/her area about where and how to properly dispose of American Flags.
2. Develop a list of patriotic organizations that provide that service.
3. Offer proper disposal training to those organizations that conduct or want to conduct flag disposal.
4. Institute and coordinate a 'flag disposal drop-off' program at different locations around their area.
If you would like more information contact j.doty@flagkeepers.org.
Prayer Groups Project
Prayer Groups Project Manager should have the gifts of organization and encouragement. Primary duties will be to 'seed' and coordinate prayer groups, maintain contact, and encourage Prayer Group Leaders in their mission. For the reason of continuity The Prayer Groups Projects Manager acts independently of Area Managers and will be a member of separate national chain of command.
Prayer Group Leaders will organize a monthly time of prayer with like minded volunteers to meet and pray for the United States, the President, our government and civil leaders overseeing American strife, and ask a blessing on the spirit of liberty that is symbolized by Flag of the United States of America. Additionally, this prayer group should pray for the Flag Keepers organization.
Typically, the Flag Keepers Prayer Group will meet once a month with a minimum of fifteen minutes dedicated to this mission. The Flag Keepers Prayer Group can be an extension of an existing prayer group. We recognize that prayer is a mighty and wonderful thing and eagerly seek prayer support.
If you'd like to join this project please contact julia@flagkeepers.org.
