Rosie The Riveter Trust

Rosie The Riveter Trust Rosie the Riveter Trust is the nonprofit partner building a community of support for the Rosie the Riveter/WWII Home Front National Historical Park.

Supporting the Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front National Historical Park. Richmond California. In 1997, a group of Richmond citizens formed the Rosie the Riveter Memorial Committee to create a memorial that would honor the women who had worked on the home front during the war. The committee brought together a coalition of supporters to fund the creation of a permanent landscape sculpture and the

City of Richmond sponsored an open design competition to select a design team. In October 2000, the Committee dedicated the sculpture in Marina Bay—a former Kaiser shipyard from World War II—with several hundred “Rosies” in attendance. Local leaders formed the Rosie the Riveter Trust, and worked with Congressman George Miller seeking Congressional authorization for a feasibility study to determine whether a national park could be established. Congressman Miller then carried legislation and President William Clinton signed the bill that established the Rosie the Riveter/Home Front National Historical Park on October 24, 2000.

A Rosie Takes Her Place on the Wall of Honor!

What a special moment at Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park as Rosie Joyce Schramek helped hang her own banner on the Park’s Wall of Honor.

Each banner represents a life, a contribution, and a piece of the remarkable World War II Home Front story.

Seeing Joyce stand beside her banner reminds us why preserving these stories matters. The Rosies were ordinary people who answered an extraordinary call, and their courage, determination, and service continue to inspire generations.

We are so proud to celebrate Joyce and ensure that her place in this history is remembered.

Rosie On, Joyce! 💪🌹
