Can a project be eligible for a Preserve America Presidential Award even though it is not quite finished?
A project or program needs to have been completed in the last three years to be eligible for the award and can be considered for an award only once it is finished. However, ongoing programs – and some projects that require routine administration and updating – may be eligible if they have been “substantially implemented,” i.e., have been implemented and functioning long enough to produce demonstrable, significant outcomes that can be evaluated. Examples could include ongoing interpretive and educational programs or ongoing volunteer programs that involve active citizen participation in caring for or showcasing local heritage assets.
