National Trust for Historic Preservation Seeks Applications for Pilot Grant Program for Historic School Buildings
Do you know of a historic school in need of preservation funding? The National Trust for Historic Preservation, in partnership with the Lowe’s Charitable and Educational Foundation, is currently seeking applications for a new pilot grant program that will fund the stabilization or rehabilitation of historic school buildings by providing funding for construction expenses. Once construction is complete, these buildings must be open to the public for use by the community.
Nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations, government agencies, and school districts/school boards are eligible to apply. Religious organizations are not eligible for funding. The maximum grant amount will be $50,000.
Grant application must be postmarked by April 30, 2010. To read the complete guidelines and eligibility requirements, and to download an application form, visit the National Trust’s web site at http://www.preservationnation.org/resources/find-funding/nonprofit-public-funding.html, and scroll down to the section titled “Lowe’s Charitable and Educational Foundation Preservation Fund.”
