Welcome to the Website

of the

American Association of the Friends of Kosciuszko at West Point, Inc.



Annually Commemorating the Life of

TADEUSZ KOSCIUSZKO
(1746 - 1817)

Polish and American Patriot and Hero, Altruist, and
Champion of Freedom, Independence, Democracy,
and Equality on Two Continents,

and held to be the

Patron Saint of West Point in the Early American Republic,

and concomitantly one of our Nation's earliest secular saints.

 

 As it has done since 2004, and would have done on April 24-25, 2020, but the unanticipated Covid-19 pandemic forced our Association's 17th Annual Kosciuszko Conference and Kosciuszko Commemorative Events to be cancelled. Our 18th Annual Tadeusz Kosciuszko Conference program on April 23, 2021 had to occur remotely via the basis of ZOOM internet technology. Nonetheless, it had been successful for all concerned. So too, by the grace of God, had been our 20th and 21st Annual Tadeusz Kosciuszko Conferences in 2023 and 2024 respectively, thereby setting the stage for our forthcoming

22nd Annual Tadeusz Kosciuszko Conference and Related Kosciuszko Commemorations that are scheduled for April 25 and 26, 2025

that will  

Commemorate the "shot heard round the world" beginning at Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill

Being commensurate with the 250th Anniversary of the Birth of the United States Army,  and Kosciuszko's "Freedom Fighter" role in its successful prosecution.

 

The Association's sole mission is dedicated to illuminating and spreading the inspiring and enduring story of the life of Tadeusz Kosciuszko and his times, which more often than not have parallels in our 21st century world.
