The American Friendship Club (AFC) was established in 2004 by current director Ilia Zukakishvili and has been actively working to strengthen cooperation and friendship between Georgia and the United States of America ever since. In pursuit of its mission, the AFC has carried out 100 projects intended to introduce Georgians to valuable American ideals, history and historical figures, cultural eleme

nts, and best business practices. Concurrently, the AFC attempts to introduce Americans to the Georgian people and culture that it loves so dearly. Implementation of the National English Spelling Competition (NESC) is one example of how the AFC aims to positively impact the Georgian community while strengthening the relationship between Georgia and the USA. The recent "Martin Luther King Junior" workshop held in February to honor "African-American History Month" is another example. The AFC cooperates closely with the US Embassy in Georgia, the Parliament of Georgia, the Government of Georgia and non-governmental organizations. The AFC welcomes all interested parties to learn more about the American Friendship Club on Facebook and to participate in future events. Project Highlight: September 11 "Peace Tree" anti-terrorism event. Beginning in 2005, the AFC has organized an annual “Peace Tree” on September 11 to commemorate the thousands of victims of the terrorist attack that occurred in the USA on 11 September 2001. At this anti-terrorism event, the AFC and Georgian people express their sympathy to the American people and condemn terrorism. Each year a decorative “Peace Tree” is specially constructed from metal for the event and people are invited to tie red, white and blue ribbons symbolizing the Amerian flag to the tree. An exhibition of photos from 11 September 2001 is also displayed.

Happy Presidents Day 🇺🇸

Presidents Day is a holiday meant to honor the Presidents who have led our great nation and to remember the values on which our country was founded. Happy Presidents Day!
Presidents’ Day is observed on the third Monday in February in the U.S. The holiday was first established in 1885 to observe Washington’s Birthday on February 22. Congress established the Uniform Monday Holiday Act in 1968, which promoted the idea of three-day weekends for the workforce and shifted holiday observances to Mondays. Washington’s Birthday soon moved to its new home on the third Monday of February, and now it was even closer in proximity to President Abraham Lincoln’s birthday on February 12.

Over the years and into the 1980s, the Washington’s Birthday holiday became known as “Presidents’ Day” and is now an observed national federal holiday. Washington’s Birthday, Lincoln’s Birthday, and Presidents’ Day can all be recognized in different ways depending on which state you live in, with Illinois recognizing Lincoln’s Birthday as a state holiday.

President Jimmy Carter's state funeral in Washington on Thursday was a solute to his political legacy, worldwide humanitarian work and commitment to faith.

The service marked a rare joint appearance of the current and former commanders-in-chief, just days before President-elect Donald Trump will be inaugurated for a second term in Washington. President Joe Biden sat alongside Trump and former Presidents George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.
