Join The Crew
Support the Ship. Celebrate the Legacy. Be Part of the Mission.
What Is The Crew?
The Crew is a new monthly giving program we are testing for the Battleship Texas. It’s built for those who believe in preserving history and want to make a lasting impact—one month at a time.
Whether you’re a longtime supporter or just discovering the ship’s story, The Crew is your chance to step aboard. It’s simple, consistent, and powerful: by joining, you’re directly supporting the restoration, storytelling, and future of the only surviving battleship to serve in both World Wars.
This is your call to duty—your opportunity to stand watch and be part of something greater.
Why The Crew?
There are many ways to support Battleship Texas:
- Through major gifts like the Flagship Circle
- Or by fueling large-scale efforts through the Capital Campaign
But The Crew is different.
It’s for people who want to give smaller, recurring amounts, stay connected to the mission, and proudly call themselves part of the team that’s keeping this ship afloat—literally and figuratively.
What All Founding Crew Members Will Receive
As founding members of The Crew, all members—regardless of giving level—will receive:
- A digital certificate of membership, signed by Battleship Texas Foundation President & CEO Tony Gregory
- Monthly email updates with restoration highlights, exclusive behind-the-scenes content, and Crew-only news
- The satisfaction of knowing you’re helping preserve a national treasure—one month at a time
