History of the Trust
Formed in 2002, the Trust became independent in 2006
The Crater Lake National Park Trust was formed during planning for the Park's 100th anniversary in 2002, and originally operated as a committee of the National Park Foundation. The Trust became independent in late 2006 and was operating as a fund of the Oregon Community Foundation while also seeking independent nonprofit status. The Trust obtained its tax exempt status in January of 2008 and is now operating as an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
