History
 In
1998, the financial assets of the Oregon Trails Coordinating
Council were transferred to The Oregon Community
Foundation to establish the Oregon Historic Trails Fund,
dedicated to projects related to Oregon historic trails as
recognized by the state legislature in ORS 358.075.
The history of the Oregon Trails Coordinating
Council and the creation of the Oregon Historic Trails Fund
can be found in the project
history of the 1998 Oregon Historic Trail Report.
From 1993 through 2008, the fund has awarded
58 grants totalling nearly $1
million dollars. The Oregon Historic Trails Fund accepts applications
for grant funds each year.
