Let's make sure that we save our great heritage,don't let it go; something to carry on for many generations to come and to be proud of it.
The SS United States remains, like our mothers, a symbol of strength and a source of inspiration. According to one of her original engineers, the SSUnited States can be compared to a "woman of the world, sleek, sophisticated, and maybe a little ruthless." The nation's most famous ship that didn't sink waits with increasing impatience at a Philadelphia pier, her beauty, strength and will to survive intact.
We are now over a month into our SOS Campaign and have raised nearly $100,000 from our grassroots supporters from across the nation and around the world. We have been so tremendously heartened by your support but we are still short of our fundraising goal.
We ask for your help to spread the word about America's Flagship to friends, family and colleagues. Of course, if you haven't yet given to the campaign, any amount you can spare will go a long way toward saving our ship and launching our museum. Please click HERE to make a donation.
All five chapters of our new documentary film, SS United States: Made in America, are now available on line. If you missed our final chapter, you can view it HERE. We encourage you to arrange a screening of the full film at your library, local theater, community center or club.
This Mother's Day, honor your mother or grandmother with a special tribute on SavetheUnitedStates.org. Select and personalize a special portion of the ship to save and give the gift of history.
As a tribute to all our mothers, please help us save a strong maritime heroine - unbowed and unbroken.
