The National Trust Preservation Funds (NTPF) accepts grant applications from members (see site) on a quarterly basis. Grants are intended to encourage preservation at the local level by providing seed money for preservation projects. These grants help stimulate public discussion, enable local groups to gain the technical expertise needed for particular projects, introduce the public to preservation concepts and techniques, and encourage financial participation by the private sector.
The National Trust is particularly interested in projects that relate to the preservation priorities listed below. If your project relates to any of these issues, please explain the connection in your narrative.
* Building sustainable communities: Does your project demonstrate that historic preservation supports economic, environmental and cultural sustainability in communities?
* Reimagining historic sites: Does your project use innovative, replicable strategies that create new models for historic site interpretation and stewardship?
* Promoting diversity and place: Does your project broaden the cultural diversity of historic preservation?
* Protecting historic places on public lands
Application deadlines are February 1, June 1, and October 1.
