Hamilton Grange National Memorial
The Alexander Hamilton Awareness Society is the nation’s only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to educating about Alexander Hamilton’s life and legacy. Founded in 2011, the AHA Society has provided extensive online resources, led programs at historic locations and museums, dispelled myths, facilitated scholarship, and served as official nonprofit partners to important Hamilton sites.

Alexander Hamilton’s life is memorialized at The Grange, the home he built on a country estate in uptown Manhattan. It stands today as a tribute to its first owner’s many accomplishments. We are proud to be the official partner of the Hamilton Grange National Memorial.
Why Alexander Hamilton
There are many inspiring Founding Fathers, both known and unknown. So why is The AHA Society dedicated to raising awareness about Alexander Hamilton? Despite being relatively unknown by modern Americans, Hamilton left an incredible legacy for the United States.
Online Exhibits
In addition to collaborating with libraries, museums, and individual collectors on organizing exhibits of original manuscripts, documents, and artifacts related to Alexander Hamilton and his time, the AHA Society develops virtual exhibits on aspects of Hamilton’s life and accomplishments, easily accessible from all corners of the world.
