USS Yorktown

Honoring history and heroes in an awe-inspiring setting, Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum is America’s first aircraft carrier museum. Nearly 300,000 people visit Charleston Harbor every year to relive history aboard our legendary ships – and to behold the only Vietnam Naval Support Base Camp in the United States, Medal of Honor Museum, and the Cold War Submarine Memorial. Patriots Point is South Carolina’s leading heritage attraction, and with your help, we can maintain this distinction for generations to come. To preserve the living history of Patriots Point, we need all hands on deck. Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum receives no funding from federal, state, or local governments for operations. The USS Yorktown Foundation, a 501(C)3 non-profit organization, is the fundraising arm of the Museum. Your donation will help fund new and enhanced exhibits, new educational programs, scholarships to bring underserved students to the Museum, and upgrades to the museum’s technology to keep Patriots Point a dynamic, interactive and imaginative learning experience.
