Sponsorship
The USS UTAH Commissioning Committee is tasked with raising public and private funds to cover the costs of Commissioning activities and events leading up to and including Commissioning Week. The funds raised ensure various commissioning events, community outreach and host functions are in place to celebrate the commissioning of our state’s namesake ship and to support the boats’ MWR (Morale, Welfare and Recreation fund) and the Dolphin Scholarship Foundation, easing the financial burden of undergraduate and vocational education for eligible members of the U.S. Submarine Force and their dependents (http://dolphinscholarship.org)
