Mission and programs · 2023
Mission
To discover, preserve, present and keep alive the story of the nation's oldest port, as symbolized by our working St. Augustine Lighthouse.
-
Historic Preservation and Maintenance - In order to fulfill its mission, the Museum performs historic preservation on several historic structures, including the Saint Augustine Lighthouse. The Light Station was restored to U.S. Department of Interior standards. The keepers' house, light tower, the WWII Jeep garage, the summer kitchens, the Fresnel lens, the lantern and restorations consume approximately 20 percent of the operation's staffing hours. The site is listed on the National Register of Historic places and in 2010 the Museum achieved its Smithsonian Affiliate status. The museum maintains the aid to navigation as a private aid and keeps the light shining.
Expenses $2,627,585 · Revenue $2,752,704
-
Museum Shop Activity - The gift shop offers visitors the opportunity to purchase various souvenirs, historical books, and other items related to the Organization's theme and mission. All revenue generated is directly used to support the Organization's programs.
Expenses $549,165 · Revenue $1,325,054
-
Interpretive and Educational Services - Education is core to the Museum's mission. Interpretive and educational services were fully part of all programs for the 47,000 +/- school age children that visited and the 200,000 +/- annual visitors. Various services offered included the "Wrecked" exhibit, the Lighthouse Summer Camp scholarship program for at-risk children, the Behind-the-Scenes tours included with paid admission, and various programs within the Maritime Archaeology Specialty Programs. All program content was tied to and teaches Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM_ education and the Museum Mission. The Museum performs scientific research in the waters of the nation's oldest port city and cares for up to 13,000 artifacts, archaeological specimen, and historic archival documents. Some 3,000 objects are on long-term loan from the State of Florida.

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.
