The Crater Lake National Park Trust works to help protect, promote, and enhance Crater Lake National Park, its unique water purity, and its value for human inspiration and knowledge.

We envision a future in which Crater Lake National Park is widely recognized as an Oregon icon and a national treasure; in which the Park serves as a thriving laboratory and classroom; and in which every Oregonian and growing numbers of others feel a deep connection to and love for Crater Lake.

In 2006, the Crater Lake National Park Trust was formed as a 501c3 non-profit organization, dedicated to fundraising for special park projects and science education programs.
