2025 Weekend Preservation Project
Will you be our next winner of the Weekend Preservation Project? This is our fourth year helping a local historic homeowner refresh the outside of their home at no cost to the homeowner! Funding of this project is all through our amazing sponsors. If your home was built before 1970, owner occupied, has a project that can be done in one weekend, and you are willing to recruit a few extra hands to help, you can benefit from this project.
