The International Midway Memorial Foundation, Inc., is a tax-exempt, non-profit
organization incorporated in the state of Maryland and dedicated to honoring and
preserving the memory and values of the Battle of Midway. Its mission is to ensure
Midway's rightful place in history as one of the most decisive naval battles of world
history and the turning point of the war in the Pacific against Japan in World War II.

The Foundation's goals are designed to promote and preserve the memory, the values and the significance of the Battle of Midway:
- The passage of a bill in Congress that will effectively prevent the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's thwarting of the bill passed by Congress in 1999 that designated the Midway Atoll a National Memorial.
- Produce a definitive documentary film on the Battle of Midway entitled "Against All Odds."
- Establish a "National Battle of Midway Essay Contest" for junior high and high school students.
-
Host a series of events in Pearl Harbor and Midway Atoll during June 2007 in commemoration of the sixty-fifth anniversary of the Battle of Midway.
- Design and erect a National Midway Memorial Monument in the Washington, D.C. area.
- Create a "War in the Pacific Museum" in the Washington, D.C. area.
- Write the definitive book on the Battle of Midway entitled "The Battle of Midway: A Historical Perspective." Copyright 2004
- Promote national Midway Night Dinners.
