The Toaster Museum Foundation Inc is a non-profit organization that was established in Portland, OR, in 2001. It is dedicated to preserving the history and culture of toasters and related products. The museum is home to a vast collection of antique and modern toasters, as well as other small kitchen appliances such as waffle makers, bread machines, and coffee grinders.

The foundation was founded by George and Sheila Priestley, who started collecting toasters in the 1970s. Their collection grew to over 600 toasters, and they realized the need to share their passion with others. The museum is run by a team of dedicated volunteers who are passionate about preserving the history of this household appliance.

The museum has a wide range of toasters from different eras, including vintage models from the early 1900s to modern-day toasters that are currently available in the market. Visitors to the museum can learn about the history of toasters, their design and functionality, and how they have evolved over time.

In addition to the museum, the foundation also hosts events and educational programs for schools and the community, and provides resources to researchers and historians interested in the history of toasters. The foundation relies on donations and grants to continue its work in preserving this unique aspect of American history.
