Yellowstone National Park http://www.nps.gov/yell/ received a record-breaking $11 million donation in 2008 from a Bozeman-based foundation dedicated to providing funds for programs that might not otherwise exist, Suzanne Lewis, the park’s superintendent said Monday.

Instituted in 1996 in Bozeman, the Yellowstone Park Foundation http://www.ypf.org/ typically donates between $3 and $4 million each year, but in 2008 the foundation gave the park $8.8 million of a $15 million capital campaign for a new Old Faithful Visitor Education Center. Slated to open in August 2010, the 25,000-square-foot visitor’s center will include state-of-the art interactive interpretive displays and is currently under construction, Lewis said.
