Established in 1980 by the CEC/Seabee Museum Board of Governors. The original CEC/Seabee Museum was located onboard the Naval Construction Battalion Center, the west coast home of the Seabees in Port Hueneme, California. The museum realigned to the then Naval Historical Center on 1 October 2005. The Naval Historical Center was renamed in the Naval History and Heritage Command in 2008.
The museum moved into the new US Navy Seabee Museum building in 2011. The Museum building was funded by the CEC/Seabee Historical Foundation (Now the Navy Seabee Foundation. The U.S. Navy Seabee Museum collects, maintains, and displays artifacts of Seabee history and accomplishments and is open to the public.
Endowed Scholarships allow our investors to build a lasting legacy, impacting Seabee children and grandchildren for generations to come. Endowed Scholarships often honor or memorialize family members, Seabee leaders, NAVFAC units, organizations or corporations. Perpetual Named scholarships can be funded at three levels, $60,000, $120,000 and $150,000 and are named by the donor.
