Full Mission Support

We are committed to getting all members and their families the resources they need to build resilience throughout their lives when it’s needed most. Gifts that fund our full mission allow us the flexibility needed to adapt to the Coast Guard’s most pressing needs. Take pride in knowing you are investing in a strong future for the men and women of the Coast Guard and their families, and assisting these heroes tackle the toughest challenges confronting them.

Our team can work with your organization to achieve the greatest impact on the Coast Guard community — and for your organization — by identifying specific opportunities in your area or nationwide.

Here are a few examples:

• Emergency Assistance - Support programs that provide immediate financial assistance and resources to members following a natural disaster, and to families of those lost in the line of duty.
• Education - Sponsor scholarships, education grants, and workforce development programs for Coast Guard members, their spouses, and their children, helping them to achieve their higher education dreams and build valuable skills that enhance their service to our Nation and beyond.
• Morale, Wellness and Resilience - Sponsor projects that improve the morale, wellbeing, and resiliency of Coast Guard members and families at nationwide or in specific locales. These include workout and recreation gear, community improvements, youth enrichment, and resilience training and retreats that keep members performing their best and build strong families to support them. Many projects come with naming or recognition opportunities such as ribbon cutting events and press and social media exposure.

Tribute Dinners and Golf Tournaments

The Coast Guard Foundation is able to execute its mission thanks to committed supporters who trust us to faithfully steward their gifts. Gifts that fund our full mission allow us the flexibility we need to adapt to the Coast Guard’s most pressing needs.

Industry Spotlight Panel Events

Industry Spotlight panels offer sponsors unparalleled access to in-depth conversations with defense and maritime industry leaders, government professionals and Coast Guard leadership.

Moderated by Jeanne Meserve, Emmy Award-Winner and former anchor and correspondent for CNN and ABC News, the Speaker Series also offers an excellent opportunity to position your company's representative as an expert thought leader on topics of interest to government and industry.

Industry Spotlight Events, such as 2023’s Maritime Prosperity Forum: Offshore Wind and Maritime Transportation in New York City, bring together industry leaders for engaging discussions on issues of importance to the Coast Guard and its partners. The Foundation also collaborates with other organizations to bring the best speakers and attendees together for valuable networking and relationship building. To promote Industry Spotlight Events and its sponsors, the Foundation and its partners employ press outreach, their websites, and social media, as well as sending more than 2,000 personal invitations to industry and government executives.
