Subject: Reminder: Funding Available for Preservation Projects in Wisconsin
Are you working on a preservation project in Wisconsin and need seed money
to help kick-start your planning efforts? Is your organization undertaking
a new educational effort aimed at engaging new audiences in preservation? I
f the answer to either question is yes, you may be eligible for funding fro
m the National Trust Preservation Funds grant program.
Grants from the National Trust Preservation Funds encourage preservation at
the local level by providing seed money for planning and education project
s. These grants help stimulate public discussion, enable local groups to ga
in the technical expertise needed for particular projects, introduce the pu
blic to preservation concepts and techniques, and encourage financial parti
cipation by the private and public sectors.
Grants range up to $5,000 and require a dollar-for-dollar match. Full eligi
bility requirements and grant guidelines, along with a link to our applicat
ion, can be found at www.preservationnation.org/funding<http://www.preserva
