Support the Battleship

You can help preserve this National Historic Landmark and salute the service of the “greatest generation.” No gift is too small and will be greatly appreciated. Please make checks payable to Friends of the Battleship NORTH CAROLINA, a 501 (c)(3) organization. Contributions are tax deductible and will help fund ongoing restoration, interpretation, and educational projects such as overnight camping and much needed hull repair.

The Battleship is self-supporting, not tax supported and relies primarily upon admissions to tour the ship, sales in the Ship's Store, donations and investments. No funds for its administration and operation come from appropriations from governmental entities at the local, state or federal levels.

Your generosity can make a difference in helping us keep the Showboat shipshape.

If you have an interest in sponsoring or being a vendor at one of our great events planned for 2012, more information can be found below.  With the help of sponsors like you, these events will offer the opportunity for us to thank North Carolina and our local community for faithful and enthusiastic support.
