The USS Indianapolis Survivors Organization had been active since 1960.
The Survivors Organization led the initiative to keep the story of the Indianapolis alive in the public consciousness.
Unfortunately, as the number of survivors dwindled, there was the risk that the story of the ship and its crew might fade as well.
A group of intrepid Indianapolis friends and family members decided to get together and create a nonprofit with the mission to perpetuate the memory of all who served in USS Indianapolis CA-35.
