We are a citizen-led military support organization founded in 1902 to support the sea services — U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Coast Guard and U.S.-flag Merchant Marine. The New York Council was the first council established and is now one of the largest and most active of the Navy League of the United States councils. Many New Yorkers and Sailors know us as one of the founders of Fleet Week New York.

Get ready for an amazing new year

Thank you to all our members and donors for all you did to further our mission of supporting the sea services in 2025. Check back here for details on exciting and impactful events to come in 2026 — and how you can participate. We’ll be sharing details soon for opportunities to help plan a few historic events:
