Hoover Institution Giving

Help Us Preserve What Makes America Exceptionally Free

Your ebook is on its way to your inbox.

As you explore America’s Exceptional Role in the World by Victor Davis Hanson, we invite you to take the next step: support the scholarship and ideas that sustain American freedom.

Today, America’s exceptionalism—its unique commitment to liberty, innovation, and constitutional self-government—is often misunderstood, underestimated, or ignored. As cultural, institutional, and geopolitical pressures mount, we face a growing risk: forgetting what has long set this country apart.

Without serious research, principled debate, and historical perspective, we risk drifting into complacency— and allowing policies that weaken our civic fabric and global standing to go unquestioned.

That’s where your support of the Hoover Institution comes in.

At Hoover, we are committed to advancing the foundational ideas that make free societies possible. Our scholars work every day to study, explain, and strengthen the pillars of American liberty: limited government, free enterprise, the rule of law, and a strong national defense.

But we can’t do it alone. This work depends on people like you.

Your support allows Hoover to:

  • Equip leaders, citizens, and institutions with data-driven insights grounded in constitutional principles
  • Amplify research that challenges groupthink and restores common sense to public discourse
  • Train the next generation of scholars and policy thinkers who will carry forward America’s best traditions

When you make a donation today, you help Hoover deliver impactful research and clear policy recommendations to leaders across the country. Your gift ensures these ideas shape decisions, inform debate, and strengthen democracy.

Together, we can ensure that the principles of liberty and prosperity continue to thrive.
