National Park Service and Partner Agencies Announce $25.7 Million in Save America’s Treasures Grants

The National Park Service (NPS) in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), and the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) today announced $25.7 million in Save America’s Treasures grants, through the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF), to fund 59 projects in 26 states and the District of Columbia that will preserve nationally significant sites and collections.

“The Save America’s Treasures program continues to build on 25 years of enabling communities across the United States to preserve and conserve their nationally significant historic properties and collections. This year’s projects celebrate this milestone anniversary through a wide range of projects that help to pass the full history of America and its people down to future generations,” said NPS Director Charles Sams.

From 1999 to 2020, Save America’s Treasures has provided $356 million to over 1,326 projects to provide preservation and conservation work on nationally significant collections, artifacts, structures and sites. Requiring a dollar-for-dollar private match, these grants have leveraged more than $500 million in private investment and contributed more than 16,000 jobs to local and state economies. 
The program requires applicants to match the grant money dollar for dollar with nonfederal funding. This award of $25,750,000 will leverage almost $50 million in private and public investment. Buildings and collections which have previously received Save America’s Treasures grants are not eligible to receive a second grant for the same project.

Established in 1977, the HPF is authorized at $150 million per year through 2023 and has provided more than $2 billion in historic preservation grants to states, tribes, local governments, and non-profit organizations. Administered by the NPS, HPF grant funds are appropriated by Congress to support a variety of historic preservation projects to help preserve the nation’s cultural resources and history.
