About Our Mission



Friends Achieving A Mission

The "Friends of the Mighty Mo" network is comprised of contributors who made a financial contribution to help achieve the MISSION of the Battleship Missouri Memorial.  Some are members, others sponsors or general donors.  Many of our friends have been with us since the ship arrived in Pearl Harbor in 1998 ... while others may only have recently joined!  In all cases we appreciate the support and aim for our mission to benefit the next generation.

Our Mission

To create and maintain a fitting memorial to the people and historic events that reflect our nation's legacy of duty, honor, strength, resolve, and sacrifice. 

Our Purpose 

To insure achievement of the mission, the day-to-day operation of the Battleship Missouri Memorial aims to connect the activities, programs, and initiatives of each department to one or more of four mission focused areas:

The Need Being Served 

Advance Educational Experiences        

Share with visitors, students, and guests meaningful national history, facts, and technology that connects them to a legacy of inspirational values 

Maintain theTreasure                              

Preserve and maintain the ship and original crew members who bring the importance of the vessel "to life"

Engage the Community

Provide a unique, public venue connected to our nation's legacy to offer meaningful public events & a location for special ceremonies

Build a Legacy                                              

Establish systems, expertise, and goals to transition a valued mission & operation to the next generation

How Contributions Are Used 

In the past, requirements to maintain the ship facilties was the automatic priority for contribution revenue.  Over the past ten years, our operation have grown to include specific programs that also achieve our mission.  To learn more about our Programs, visit a summary list of How Funds are Used.
