What is the NPS Foundation?

The NPS Foundation is a non profit 501(c)(3) organization (Tax ID: 23-7098729) whose primary mission is to support the students, faculty and staff of the Naval Postgraduate School. Similar to other educational institutions, private support is vital to achieve standards above the sustaining level of public support. Private donations enhance the educational experience of NPS to the level of the country's best institutions of higher learning. With this support, we assist in the development of the military leaders of tomorrow, while also funding research that significantly improves our nation's security capabilities.

Through memberships and other donations, we are able to provide private funds for:

• Academic awards to both students and faculty
• Student and faculty research
• Student internships
• Faculty recruitment and retention
• Individual NPS departments
• Upgrades to facilities and equipment
• Sponsoring guest lectures
• NPS visibility and community involvement
• Historic preservation, museum displays and recreational opportunities
