The Kinzua Bridge Foundation Inc is a non-profit organization located in Smethport, Pennsylvania. The foundation was established in 2003 with the aim of preserving and promoting the historical significance of the Kinzua Viaduct. The viaduct was once the tallest and longest railroad bridge in the world, standing at 301 feet tall and 2,053 feet long. It was built in 1882 by the Erie Railroad Company to transport coal and oil from the region.

However, in 2003, a tornado struck the bridge and destroyed a significant portion of it. The Kinzua Bridge Foundation was formed to preserve the remaining structure and turn it into a tourist attraction. The foundation has since then raised funds and worked towards stabilizing the remaining towers and providing safe access for visitors to the site.

Today, the Kinzua Bridge State Park is a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from all over the world. The park is home to a visitor center, hiking trails, and scenic overlooks. The Kinzua Skywalk, a pedestrian walkway that extends 600 feet out over the valley, offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The Kinzua Bridge Foundation continues to play a vital role in preserving and promoting the historical significance of the Kinzua Viaduct and ensuring that it remains a popular destination for years to come.
