Your tax-deductible gifts enable Northwest Trek to add new programs and exhibits, upgrade old ones, purchase new equipment, increase its conservation and research efforts, and move ahead in various ways beyond normal operations and maintenance. Because Trek needs to work on new projects in an organized fashion, unrestricted gifts are most useful, as they can be used where needed most when received.

However, you will also find examples throughout this section of how restricted gifts can help Trek, whether a gift is large enough to take care of a purchase by itself or is directed to an ongoing program, such as the Animal Sponsorship Program or the Northwest Trek Conservation Program (NWTCP) When in doubt as to the best purpose for your gift, please contact Keriann Cockrell at 360-832-7182 or Keriann.Cockrell@nwtrek.org
