Camp Lejeune Chapter 10

Mission:

The National Montford Point Marine Association, Inc., is a nonprofit Veterans Service Organization initially established in 1965. Our mission is to perpetuate the legacy of the first African Americans who entered the United States Marine Corps from the period of 1942 to 1949, and trained at the segregated training facility, Montford Point Camp, New River, North Carolina.

The Association works to improve the social conditions of veterans and their families by implementing programs to provide youth mentoring, educational scholarships, and assistance within the growing population of senior citizens.

On February 29, 2024, the National Montford Point Marine Association, Inc., was recognized by the United States Veterans Administration and approved as a Veterans Service Organization for the purpose of preparing, presenting, and prosecuting claims under the laws administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Here at the Montford Point Marines Association Camp Lejeune Chapter #10, we strive to build productive relationships and make a positive impact with all of our pursuits.
