Krewe of the 13

A bold band of buccaneers bringing hope and help to the community.

Assisting Individuals and Families Experiencing Hardship

The Krewe of the 13 comprises core members, swabbies, benefactors, and corporate members. Together, they unite with a shared mission: to raise funds and support individuals and families experiencing hardship. 

Their efforts focus on aiding victims of domestic violence and those grappling with financial instability caused by circumstances such as unemployment, overwhelming medical expenses, chronic health conditions, lack of reliable transportation, or the imminent threat of eviction.

Spreading Cheer and Support Through Community Celebrations

Operating primarily within St. Johns, Flagler, and Duval counties, the Krewe of the 13 works closely with local businesses and community leaders to amplify their impact. The organization hosts themed fundraising events through partnerships and sponsorships throughout the year. 

These include masquerade balls, festive Halloween parties, and cruises, designed to engage the community while raising funds. Proceeds from ticket sales, donations, raffles, and other fundraising efforts are funneled back into the community, helping to provide financial relief and resources to those most in need.

Mission Statement

The Krewe of the 13 is a group of re-enactors who share and enjoy the fun and camaraderie of dressing and portraying the Golden Age of Piracy while raising money for charity. We raise money to help local families who, through no fault of their own, find themselves in dire need. We try to help when we are able to change the outcome of a temporary situation. Krewe of the 13, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) public registered charity.
