Stewardship and preservation of Crater Lake National Park.
Since 1993, the Friends have partnered with the National Park Service to care for Crater Lake National Park and its visitors.
The Friends of Crater Lake is a non-profit volunteer group made up of members from all walks of life and from all parts of the U.S. and the world. Many are alumni of the National Park Service. We share the common goal of protecting and preserving the most precious and unique of America's crown jewels: Crater Lake National Park.
