WELCOME ABOARD!
The Navy League of the United States was founded in 1902 with the encouragement of President Theodore
Roosevelt. The Navy League is unique among military-oriented associations in that it is a civilian organization
dedicated to the education of our citizens, including our elected officials, and the support of the men and
women of the sea services and their families.
The objective and purpose of the Navy League is educational and motivational. We must acquire and display
before the citizens of our country information as to the conditions of our naval and maritime forces. We must
awaken interest and support in all matters which aid our maritime capabilities.
To this end, the Navy League works closely with the Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and US-flag Merchant
Marine through a network of over 330 councils in the United States and around the world. The Navy League
has nearly 75,000 active members.
The Navy League supports America's young people through its youth programs, including sponsorship of the
US Naval Sea Cadet Corps and the Navy League Scholarship Program. Individual councils are also involved in
promoting youth-oriented activities in their communities such as NJROTC, MCJROTC, and ROTC units along
with other recognized youth programs. Local councils and national headquarters provide over $25,000
scholarships and awards every year.
Navy League councils support active duty military personnel through "adoption" of ships, installations, and
units; commissioning ceremonies; award programs; and other recognition programs.
Over the years, the Navy League has compiled an impressive record of accomplishments. Today the Navy
League is widely respected by citizens, community and industrial leaders, and public officials. Navy League
programs are welcomed in communities throughout the nation, and members are recognized for their
integrity and patriotism.
"It seems to me that all good Americans interested in the growth of their country and sensitive to its honor,
should give hearty support to the policies which the Navy League is founded to further. For the building and
maintaining in proper shape of the American Navy, we must rely on nothing but the broad and farsighted
patriotism of our people as a whole."
- Theodore Roosevelt
