Mission
THE USS MISSOURI MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION IS DEDICATED TO PRESERVING THE BATTLESHIP MISSOURI AND SHARING HER STORY AND PLACE IN HISTORY.
-
WHAT BEGAN IN 1994 AS A PROJECT FOR HAWAII'S CIVIC LEADERS, TRANSITIONED INTO THE USS MISSOURI MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS ASSUMED LONG-TERM RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE RETIRED USS MISSOURI (BB-63) WHICH OPENED TO THE PUBLIC ON JANUARY 29, 1999 AND HAS SINCE ATTRACTED OVER 10 MILLION VISITORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD. THE ASSOCIATION FOCUSES ON THREE CORE STRATEGIC AREAS: PRESERVATION AND RESTORATION, EDUCATION, AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH. RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE STATE'S TOP FIVE PAID VISITOR DESTINATIONS, THE BATTLESHIP MISSOURI MEMORIAL IS A SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTOR TO THE ECONOMIC VITALITY OF HAWAII'S VISITOR INDUSTRY, THE LARGEST DRIVER OF THE STATE'S GDP. BEYOND PRESERVATION OF THE SHIP, THE ASSOCIATION LOOKS TOWARD ENHANCED EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING AND PIER UPGRADES TO SUSTAIN A WORLD-CLASS VISITOR EXPERIENCE THAT IS COMPELLING AND RELEVANT. IN MARCH 2017, THE ASSOCIATION AND THE U.S. NAVY ENTERED INTO A 25-YEAR LEASE ENSURING A PERMANENT HOME IN PEARL HARBOR FOR THE BATTLESHIP MISSOURI. WITH THE LEASE IN PLACE, THE ASSOCIATION FINALLY HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO REALIZE THE LONG-HELD VISION TO MAKE THE BATTLESHIP MISSOURI MEMORIAL THE FINEST HISTORIC SHIP ATTRACTION IN THE WORLD.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
