We are an independent, non-profit organization not officially affiliated with Crater lake National Park or the National Park Service (NPS) as a “park partner”. We are a 501 (C) 3 non-profit organization.

Many of our friends are ex-Crater Lake National Park researchers, natural historians, and long-time visitors who are passionate about getting the message out to all visitors concerning Crater Lake National Park’s unique natural and cultural history.

Crater Lake Foundation

The philanthropic arm of our organization, we have funded all sort of causes, from the Crater Lake Ski Patrol to small art galleries, public sculpture to our own art collection. We also award some of the finest yet under-recognized people in their field.

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission is to enhance the visitor experience through educational activities including field seminars, professional workshops, and research projects. We encourage scientifically sound resource decision-making in managing Crater Lake National Park’s natural and cultural resources.

We promote sound stewardship in natural resource management, and believe a scientific understanding of resource issues will assist the restoration management of a biologically diverse landscape.
