PVF was established in 1994 to provide educational assistance to mariners and to support the development and improvement of safety resources for the passenger vessel industry. A key component of this mission is the Passenger Vessel Foundation Grant program which has, since 1999, donated over $400,000 in grants. The grants offer financially aid to those looking to grow their knowledge and skill set to achieve the necessary credentials to reach their career goals in the maritime industry.
