  • About Us

    The Independence Hall Association (IHA) was founded in 1942 to spearhead the creation of Independence National Historic Park. We are written into the enabling legislation of the Park and stand as an independent group of private concerned citizens overseeing and being consulted on matters concerning the Park. The IHA owns the website ushistory.org, which supports our mission to educate the public about people, places and events in US history from pre-colonial times to the present.

    The IHA is a Pennsylvania nonprofit corporation which is exempt from federal income tax as a public charity under Sections 501 (c) (3) and 509 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Association is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors.
