The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation is a nonprofit organization focused on protecting and interpreting historic places within Washington State. By partnering with communities, it aims to preserve local heritage, facilitate sharing of historical narratives, and shape the future of historic sites in the region. The organization operates within the museums, historical sites, and zoos sector, serving communities that are seeking stewardship and advocacy for preservation efforts. Based in Seattle, Washington, it positions itself as a collaborative steward of cultural resources rather than a conventional cultural institution, reflecting its community-centered approach.

The group engages in activities that support endangered places and collaborative preservation initiatives, including partnerships and programmatic efforts that raise awareness and provide guidance for preservation projects. Its work extends to outreach and storytelling related to maritime and regional history, as evidenced by initiatives such as map-based and project-focused endeavors. While the exact scope of its activities is grounded in Washington State, the organization maintains a regional focus on safeguarding historic assets and promoting public appreciation of the state's cultural heritage.
