THE NEXT 250 YEARS START WITH THEM

America has approached its 250th year.

The question before us is not simply how we celebrate our past, but how we prepare the generation that will shape what comes next.

Across this country and around the world, millions of military-connected children are growing up between cultures, communities, and continents. They understand change. They understand resilience. They understand the world.

But the future will not be built by resilience alone. It will be built by preparation.

Preparation through education. Preparation through innovation. Preparation through leadership.

The Military Child World Expo was created to bring together families, educators, innovators, organizations, and leaders who believe that military-connected youth deserve more than recognition, they deserve opportunity.

This Expo is a place where young people explore science, technology, leadership, culture, and belonging.

Because the next century will demand thinkers, builders, and problem-solvers.

And many of them are growing up in military families today.

The next 250 years start with them.

April 25, 2026 | 10 AM - 6 PM | Hyatt Regency Crystal City | 2799 Richmond Hwy, Arlington, Virginia 22202.

As America approached its 250th anniversary, the Military Child World Expo is building a national platform dedicated to the future of military-connected children.

• Those who believe in investing in the next generation are invited to stand with us and help expand this mission.

• The Military Child World Expo represents a national effort to ensure that military-connected youth are prepared to lead in the next century.

Those who believe in this mission are invited to join us as supporters and champions for the future of military families.
