Shipway Number 10 Monthly Giving Program
The dream of the SS United States emerged in steel and aluminum at Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company's Shipway Number 10. From the laying of her keel on February 8, 1950, the ship has embodied technological and artistic achievement and has served as a soaring monument to the nation's can-do spirit.
Shipway Number 10 is a community of Conservancy members who support us throughout the year through monthly donations. This continuity and generosity is essential to our ongoing efforts to keep the SS United States safely floating, our curatorial collections growing, and our museum planning moving forward. As with the placement of the ship's keel in her original graving dock, our Shipway Number 10 supporters provide foundational support as we work to ensure that the SS United States endures for future generations.
