The Cape Canaveral Lighthouse is the only fully operational lighthouse owned by the United States Air Force. The optic is maintained as an active aid to navigation by the U.S. Coast Guard, the lighthouse itself was transferred to Air Force ownership on December 14, 2000. It is the purpose of the Foundation to assist the 45th Space Wing in preserving, protecting and interpreting the Cape Canaveral Lighthouse and its historical significance to the Space Coast, State of Florida, and the United States of America. Your help in the restoration of this historic landmark allows us to be part of the future by preserving the past.
