Confederate Heritage
Fund's
Battle Flags Across Alabama Project
We install
Battle Flags and flagpoles FREE of charge in the front yards of people's
homes in Alabama.
Our project has been enthusiastically received and we have now
installed 30 flagpoles in the front yards of Alabamians, from the Florida
line to the Tennessee line, displaying our Veterans' Confederate Battle
Flag.
Our flagpole is 16 feet high above the ground with 2 feet below the
ground set into a 2 foot section of 2 inch PVC, which is then immersed in
concrete. We use 1 7/8 inch galvanized steel pipe topped with a cap and
then attach a 3 x 5 foot Confederate Battle Flag.
It cost us about $60 to erect each flagpole. (Please see enclosed
photo.) Some are on highways with great exposure, some in neighborhoods
and some in the country. But all are in the front yards of people's homes
and promote the personal endorsement of the homeowners for our Veterans'
Flag to their friends, family and the public.
This personal endorsement in turn causes others to display the
Battle Flag. We now have over 100 requests for Battle Flags and poles to
be installed but not enough money to pay for the Flags, poles, and
installation. Will you help us? Please send a generous donation to:

Please make your check payable to Confederate Heritage Fund and then
write on the bottom left of your check, For: Battle Flags Across Alabama.
All donors will receive our Quarterly Update Newsletter informing
them of this project, as well as, our other projects from political
campaigns and lawsuits, to legislation and Memorials.
If you wish for us to erect a Battle Flag atop a 16 foot steel
flagpole in your front yard in Alabama, FREE of any charge to you, please
send your name, home street address (no P.O. Box numbers) and phone number
to us at the above address.
If you, your organization or your camp wish to give 50% matching
funds for specific Flags installed in your area, we will install those
first. Please give details of where Flags are to be installed with your
donation.
If you, your organization or your camp know of anyone willing to
donate the use of their land located on the Interstate or Major Highway
and willing to help with financing the installation of an 8x12 foot Battle
Flag atop a 45 foot flagpole on this land, would be about $1,500. Please
write us.
