Volunteers at the USS KIDD help to augment our small staff and make many programs and events possible. There are many different areas in which you may lend your time and assistance for the betterment of both the memorial and the community. Many academic youth groups are required to dedicate a certain number of hours each month or year toward community service. Additionally, many retired individuals (ages 55+) contribute their time each month through the Retired Senior & Volunteer Program (RSVP) of the East Baton Rouge Parish Council On Aging. If you’re looking for a way to contribute to the community, then come down to the river and join the team!
While our ship is away the Museum is open. See our page Overhaul 2024/2025 on this website for further details regarding the ship.
