Oregon State Parks Trust is the only statewide not-for-profit organization dedicated to preserving and enhancing Oregon’s state parks system. Our mission is to preserve and enhance Oregon’s outstanding natural, scenic, cultural, historic and recreational sites for the enjoyment of present and future generations. We accomplish this mission by raising funds, building partnerships, and raising public awareness for Oregon’s state park system. From the restoration and preservation of some of Oregon’s most prized historic monuments and places, to the establishment of interpretive and educational programs for the benefit of park visitors, the Trust supports the expansion and enhancement of Oregon’s state parks.
