The Heart Mountain Wyoming Foundation is a small cultural organization focused on preserving the Heart Mountain World War II Japanese American confinement site and the stories that illustrate democracy's fragility. It also aims to educate the public about the internment of Japanese Americans at Heart Mountain during World War II and its impact on the Bighorn Basin, while supporting inquiry, research, and outreach to connect those lessons to civil rights today. The organization is based in Powell, Wyoming.

It operates within the Museums, Historical Sites, and Zoos sector and participates in regional collaborations with other institutions focused on Japanese American confinement history. A recent development is the April 16, 2026 partnership with the Fort Missoula Museum as part of the Exiled to the Rockies initiative, linking several institutions including Amache Alliance, Friends of Minidoka, Historical Museum at Fort Missoula, and Topaz Museum. The foundation maintains a focus on programming and education to advance understanding of this history.
