Supporting The VolcanoCams
The Mount St. Helens VolcanoCams are maintained by the Gifford Pinchot
National Forest and Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument.
The
Mount St. Helens VolcanoCams receive no government funding. In fact,
there is no budget at all for the VolcanoCams. We
thank our longstanding non-profit partner, Discover Your Northwest for their continuing support for the VolcanoCams,
especially
our VolcanoCam viewers who support us through Discover Your Northwest.
Staff support for the VolcanoCams comes from several of us as time permits.
Unfortunately our time is too often quite limited.
