Historic Preservation. Have you ever stopped to consider this phrase? What it means? Why the concept is so important? The reality is that most of us don’t pay attention to historic preservation. As a philosophy, it is a set of actions that are vital to maintaining links us to our diverse cultures and unique heritages. As an actionable practice, it means knowing that the act of preserving our past leads to a stronger future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historic Preservation helps us find and maintain our diverse cultural identities. After all, isn\u2019t our country built on the shared dreams and ideals of people who sensed a greater need for community and the common good?  Logically, the final question must be, how do we fund historic preservation projects?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GrantWatch<\/strong><\/a> takes great pride in providing access to a variety of grants to help fulfill this essential obligation we share in preserving our cultural diversity. Grant funding is available to help with things like restoring landmark buildings, protecting historic homes, and preserving historically significant sites. In addition, funding can also lead to community development, the collection of oral histories, and sustaining heritage properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Importance of Historical Preservation<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Historic preservation is a conversation with our past about our future. It provides us with opportunities to ask, “What is important in our history?” and “What parts of our past can we preserve for the future?” Through historic preservation, we look at history in different ways, ask different questions of the past, and learn new things about our history and ourselves. Historic preservation is an important way for us to transmit our understanding of the past to future generations.<\/p>

Our nation’s history has many facets, and historic preservation helps tell these stories. Sometimes historic preservation involves celebrating events, people, places, and ideas that we are proud of; other times it involves recognizing moments in our history that can be painful or uncomfortable to remember.<\/p>

Within the National Park Service, many people work in historic preservation: archeologists, architects, curators, historians, landscape architects, and other cultural resource professionals. The National Park Service carries out historic preservation both within and outside the National Park System.<\/p>National Park Service, “What is Historic Preservation?<\/em>“<\/a><\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
