Freedom Train For Kids Foundation

Our vision is leading a new generation of young patriots who will be taking footsteps into the future and leaving patriotic footprints for younger generations to follow in…all waving the American flag of patriotism.

Freedom Train For Kids Foundation believes kids naturally want to love their country. Our mission is to nurture this desire in a way that sparks creativity and engagement while building a foundational understanding of patriotism in our youth to enrich their value, dreams, and resilience, which will lead to flourishing communities.

Imagine an innovative educational movement beginning to sow the seeds of the core values of patriotism inside our nation’s classrooms during the celebration year of our 250th birthday and then remaining deeply rooted for decades to come! This movement is vital and essential for the health and well-being of our children, communities and the future of the United States of America.

We invite you to join us hand in hand with kids across America to impact future generations within the vast educational opportunities on the horizon to teach and reinforce our sacred patriotic values, which will result in our upcoming generations of elementary students’ hearts and minds being rooted again in patriotism. This will set our country in motion to reap a republic that embodies hope and a renewed strength and ambition to chase after their wildest dreams, and with that success, give back by constructing caring ideas that can change the world!

“I hope every child in America embraces these books and that it forever ignites a spirit of patriotism.”

-General Ann E. Dunwoody, United States Army, Retired, America’s First Female 4-Star General

"Freedom is not free! Our youth should know the story of the founding of our republic and be grounded thoroughly in the traditional values of liberty and sacrifice that are the cornerstones of our great nation. Your book tells this valuable story in a compelling, powerful way. I applaud you and your colleagues and submit that your work should be on the bookshelves of every child in the U.S.A.””

-Jack Hawkins Jr., Ph.D., Troy University Chancellor

“My hope is that this well-written book will spark the children’s curiosity to learn more about our founding fathers and the historic documents upon which our nation was founded and that they will think about their rights and duties as an American.”

-Dave Watson, U.S. Marine Guard who served aboard the 1947 Freedom Train

Freedom Train For Kids is moving down the tracks to begin an unparalleled patriotic movement across America in the hearts and minds of our elementary school students!

Kathy Maggart is leading this extraordinary vision. She is a deeply passionate and award-winning former educator, whose patriotism flourishes from being raised in a Navy family, serving as an Army wife, and mother of a soldier who served.
