About Navy League Hampton Roads

The Navy League of the United States, Hampton Roads was founded on May 8, 1961, and was recognized as a 501(c)(3) organization on April 24, 1984. We sponsor and host events throughout the year for sea service members, develop programs to support military families, and use our voice to educate the public about the importance of the sea services to our nation’s defense, well-being, and economic prosperity. 


Navy League Hampton Roads is extremely proud of our programs. Each program we offer has an outstanding reputation and is supported by local and state elected officials, U.S. Navy leaders, and military-friendly businesses. These programs boost morale for service members and their families. In current times, this has never been more important as our service members may be called upon to deploy in a moment's notice. Our responsibility is to support these members and their families in ways that make a substantial difference in their quality of life.  We take this role seriously! We have supported the Sea Services in Hampton Roads for over 60 years.
