Heritage Trust Fund
The Heritage Trust Fund (HTF) is a state program that provides matching funds for the preservation of properties listed in the National Register of Historic Places or the Register of Historic Kansas Places. The HTF reimburses expenses for projects that preserve or restore historic properties. Qualifying expenses include professional fees and construction costs. Properties owned by the state or federal governments are not eligible, but those owned by local governments, private individuals, non-profit, and for-profit entities qualify. Individual grant awards may not exceed $90,000 and must be matched by the grant recipient.
Applications are due November 1 each year.
Informational grant workshops are held throughout the summer at various locations across the state to provide applicants with step-by-step instruction on filling out this grant application. Workshops for the 2012 HTF grant round are concluded for this year. Check back in spring 2012 for a list of workshops planned next summer or view a list of other preservation-related workshops here.
The 2012 Heritage Trust Fund grant round is now closed. Materials for the 2013 HTF grant round will be available by May 2012.
