Who We Are
The Navy League is a non-profit organization committed to educating the public and government officals on why our nation's sea services--our Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marine--are essential to our nation’s security and prosperity. We believe in enhancing the morale of sea service personnel and their families through national- and council-level engagement and involvement. Proceeds from the Navy Ball support our youth programs--US Naval Sea Cadet Corps, Junior ROTC, and Young Marines--which expose young people to the values and importance of our sea services.
