Navy League Foundation's Scholarship Program
One of the most rewarding opportunities to demonstrate your appreciation for the men and women of the American Sea Services is to support The Navy League Foundation’s Scholarship Program. Thanks to the generosity of donors and members from around the world, the Navy League Foundation is able to provide financial assistance to the dependents and direct descendants of Sea Service personnel for college and university expenses.
Currently, the Navy League Foundation has a total of 25 endowed scholarships. Navy League Councils across the United States provide additional scholarships to students and Sea Cadets in their cities and regions.
