Heritage Society

The Naval War College is an iconic symbol of the United States’ storied military history. Established in 1884, it has a rich heritage as the oldest and most preeminent educational institution of its kind in the world. Preparing leaders is a key part of that heritage—one that is vital and necessary—sewn right into the very fabric of our nation.

You, too, can share in that rich and enduring heritage by becoming a member of the Naval War College Foundation’s Heritage Society. Membership in the Society through a planned gift to the NWCF will help sustain the College in its work to educate our military and civilian leaders to ensure a more secure and peaceful world. It also ensures your own personal legacy at the College and beyond.

The Heritage Society recognizes individuals who have had the foresight and generosity to include the Naval War College Foundation in their estate plans. Its members keenly understand that providing philanthropic support is necessary to sustain the College in keeping with our forefathers’ goals of ensuring domestic tranquility and providing for the common defense. Membership in the Heritage Society helps to sustain the College for our posterity.
