Guild members and supporters can get involved and become actively engaged in the Foundation’s activities. By supporting us in this way, you can help us sustain this important work - uncovering and disseminating the texture of our forebears’ day-to-day lives together with details of their achievements. It is easy to get involved: by talking to friends and family, especially those interested in family history; telling your local library, community learning groups, fraternal organisations in your area; messaging genealogy and history societies, museums, Irish, Scots-Irish and celtic cultural organisations, sharing and commenting on social media, blogs and forums; or even mentioning the Foundation to your local Irish pubs, clubs or local interest groups. You don’t need to live in USA to assist. Supporters living in UK and Ireland, Canada, Europe, Australasia and South Africa have friends, family and contacts in USA. You too can share posts, tweets and details of the tour with potentially interested parties. We’d like you to help us to get the bush telegraph ‘zinging’ with chat about the tour and thus spread the word about the Foundation’s work and our tour programme to the widest possible audience. We would like to thank you for your help and support.
