Navy League councils around the world provide personal support of units and ships from the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard and even adopt units from youth programs, such as the U.S. Naval Sea Cadets, Navy League Cadet Corps, Young Marines and others.
Navy League councils provide support through awards, invitations to attend events, financial support, scholarships, ship visits, emergency support, family support and more.
