What is involved in the 2009 Partners in Preservation initiative?
The 2009 Partners in Preservation initiative will focus on the Greater Boston Area. Twenty-five eligible historic places will compete for a total of $1 million in preservation grants from American Express. From April 14 – May 17, the public is invited to vote for the places they would like to see receive preservation funding and to share their personal stories and photos of the 25 sites. Each person can vote once daily for any of the 25 historic places. The winner of the public vote is guaranteed to receive a grant.
