Restore Patriotism
The Carry The Colors Foundation puts the American flag in front of people, presented by the men and women who swore an oath to defend it. Two programs, all six branches, ceremonies anywhere in the country.
Two words, and we mean them literally. Patriotism is not restored by arguing about it. It is restored by doing it correctly, in public, at the moments people already care about.
So that is the work. A joint service color guard that renders honors to standard. Service members and veterans who can sing the anthem the way it deserves to be sung. A flag carried by someone who has earned the uniform they are wearing while they carry it.
Every detail we field is made up of active duty, Reserve, National Guard and veteran members. Nobody is playing dress-up. That is the whole point.
Two Programs, One Formation
They were built to work together. The colors come forward, the anthem is sung, and the room stands up.

Who You Are Booking
The All American Color Guard has been presenting the colors since 2017. It is now one of two programs under the Carry The Colors Foundation, a Texas nonprofit with a 501(c)(3) application pending with the IRS, based in Lubbock, Texas.
Started By Someone Who Stood In The Formation
Jayton A. Ellis spent eight years in the United States Navy as an aircrewman. He built the All American Color Guard in 2017 and grew it into a foundation with two national programs.
He is a Texas Tech graduate and he runs this out of Lubbock, which is why the foundation is headquartered there.
