  The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (USNSCC) is nationwide chartered non-profit organizations dedicated to helping American youth (ages 10-17) explore military life while providing an opportunity to learn responsibility, build character, teamwork and leadership skills. Our program enables the cadets to develop interests and skills in basic seamanship, patriotism, courage, self-reliance and accountability with additional opportunities in advance training such as Airman, Fire Fighting, Marksmanship, and even SEAL Training. Their participation in a variety of activities within a safe, alcohol-free, drug-free, and gang-free environment provides an alternative to other less favorable temptations. Other than the Cadets yearly minimal membership fee, our organization operates solely on the financial support from our community through donations from organizations, businesses as well as individuals. 100% of all contributions are allocated to support the activities for the Cadets, assist with uniforms for those who experience financial hardship, Cadet training and operating costs. All adult officers and instructors are unpaid volunteers who donate their time. All donations are tax deductible under Section 501(c) (3) of the IRS Code. Your contributions will make a difference!
