The R H Crossland Foundation was formed in July of 1998 by Rusty Crossland to perpetuate the memory of Rusty's father (who was Rusty's greatest mentor), "to foster a legacy of helping others" who are less fortunate, and to practice strategic philanthropy. The Foundation has contributed to various causes in the past ranging from scholarships & rescue missions
to wildlife and local residents in need.

Recently Rusty decided to move the Foundation to the quaint Colorado town of Durango. Here Rusty is planning to open up his vast historical document collection to the general public. Previously a private family collection located in his home, Only invited guests were able to see and take advantage of his collection.
