Giving
Many Parents direct their philanthropic support to the Naval Academy and the Brigade of Midshipmen through the Naval Academy Foundation's Parents Fund. As you may know through your son or daughter's experience at USNA, private gifts from parents support programs that directly impact the Brigade of Midshipmen, molding your son or daughter into a junior officer ready to serve, and to lead. This funding enriches the Academy's ability to train the high caliber young men and women of the Brigade in preparation for service to the nation. Learn more about investing in excellence at the Naval Academy.
Parents are also encouraged to learn more about the President's Circle, an annual donor recognition society.
