The OSAF Foundation was conceived by Merle Lowden, prominent OSAF member, to promote forestry education. It was established in 1985. All members of OSAF are members of the Foundation.

The Foundation is administered by a Board of Trustees. The 2010 Board of Trustees:
At Large Position 1: Mike Cafferata - Chair
At Large Position 2: Mark Buckbee
At Large Position 3: Jennifer Beathe
At Large Position 4: George Chesely
OSU Faculty Member: Ed Jensen, OSU Faculty
Position 6: Tim Keith, Chair, OSAF
Position 7: Mike Cloughesy, Chair-elect OSAF

In 2009, the Foundation supported students at OSU College of Forestry with two full tuition scholarships! The account balance is nearly sufficient to maintain two full-time scholarships.

In 2010, the OSAF Foundation plans to actively pursue fundraising opportunities for the Foundation through a golf tournament, provide recognition of SAF professional involvement by honoring SAF Fellows, and maintain and build knowledge of the Foundation with SAF members. Stay tuned for more information.
