The purpose of the Swanson Foundation is for charitable, literary, scientific and educational purposes, also we fight for the prevention of cruelty to children and animals. This direction has changed little over the years. Although the Foundation’s purpose remains the same, the scope of its mission has broadened to include medical research, tactical training opportunities for law enforcement and military units, and public information through the use of film and mass media.

 
 

The Treehouse Museum

   The Dr. W.C. Swanson Family Foundation is pleased to partner with the Elizabeth Stewart Treehouse Museum in downtown Ogden to provide visitors with a new Mongolian Ger. The traditional mongolian Nomadic house is 13 feet in diameter and 50 feet in circumference and was handmade in Mongolia.
   The new Ger is part of the "One World" exhibit gallery and the ongoing relationship between the Swanson Foundation and the Treehouse Museum. Treehouse staff and volunteers will be using the Ger for storytimes and part of the "World Tales" school tour. Families who visit the museum can tour the Ger on their own learn about the Ger from the fun and informative signs in the Ger, play a Mongolian children's game, or read books sharing fascinating facts about the country of Mongolia.
