Comments: There is a good chance that so of the things on here are wrong because wiki is a site where anybody could write anything, but this is what I find. This give info on the history and who rallied for the bank itself.

My servive learning and N.H.D project

The ideas I have for service learning are to start a club to get people more aware of global warming and ways to prevent it. Next have an article in the newspaper that show animals that can be adopted and are in good health or those that really need of help asap. Finally a movie night that can help people get more interested and aware about how recycling helps the nation.


For my N.H.D project I have a little history and interesting fact for you. First the history: the First National Bank of the U.S. was made because the government need to pay off its debt from the Revolutionary War and to unify the states by making them have one standard from of currency.At first the nation had no single form of money, the states each had there own form of capital for instants if someone from New York brought money from there to Delaware the person from New York couldn't buy anything because that person's money had no value in that state. So in 1791 Congress chartered the First National Bank was completed and signed by George Washington. It was abandon in 1811 and restored in 1976 for the Bicentennial. Here's those facts I promised .

1. It was the future home of the Civil War Museum in Philadelphia
2. It's the oldest banking building in America.
3. It's considered the oldest building in America with a classical facade
4. The bank's charter was in effect for only 20 year
5. It cost $110,168.05 to build the bank!

This is just a small taste of my N.H.D project so be prepared to get blown away!!!
