Mission Statement
The Naval War College Foundation encourages and supports the excellence of the Naval War College in carrying out its mission. In doing so, the Foundation solicits, receives and administers funds, securities, and gifts-in-kind, which are then provided to the College for the strengthening of its academic, research, simulation and facilities enhancement programs in areas where funding from the U.S. Government is not available. We seek to develop and be prudent stewards of our relationships and resources, work to increase public awareness of the Naval War College capabilities, programs and research activities and assist in sustaining an active alumni affairs program.
