Our world is desperate for change: for light, hope, love. Our culture is simultaneously erasing God and thirsting for the life-giving water only He can provide. The American Heritage Girls (AHG) Ministry has a rich history in sharing the promises of Christ with the next generation.
. . .
AHG has proven to be an effective catalyst for building women of integrity who follow Christ. AHG’s legacy has been the spread of Christ’s redeeming love in our world, ultimately growing His Kingdom. The Holy Spirit has left an indelible mark on the hearts of generations of girls through AHG. In 30 years of ministering to girls, families, and communities nationwide, we can already see the impact AHG’s legacy is making. It’s our duty to continue this incredible ministry He has given us and share the love of our Heavenly Father with His girls.
We invite you to join in sustaining this legacy for generations
to come through this opportunity to invest.
We Look Forward to Celebrating With You, Register Today!

American Heritage Girls Through the Years
In 1995, American Heritage Girls was founded by a group of parents that desired a faith-based, character development program to guide their daughters as women of God and integrity. AHG was created with the love of God through the love of families for the love of children. Since its start in 1995 in West Chester, Ohio, AHG has grown from 10 Troops and 100 Members to over 50,000 members across 15 countries and 50 states.
