Synopsis

In 1988, the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Preservation grant program was established to document, preserve, and stabilize historic structures on HBCU campuses. Historic resources on campuses of accredited Historically Black Colleges and Universities that are listed or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places either individually or as contributing to a National Register or National Historic Landmark historic district are eligible for this program. Projects must meet major program selection criteria and all work must follow the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation. Projects may also fund survey, nomination, and preservation planning for historic HBCU campuses.

Who can apply

ONLY accredited HBCU institutions may apply. https://nces.ed.gov/COLLEGENAVIGATOR/?s=all&sp=4&pg=1Properties must be listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places or designated a National Historic Landmark, either individually or as contributing to a historic district. Properties that are eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places must submit a Determination of Eligibility from their State Historic Preservation Office with their application. Projects not listed in the National Register must prepare or amend a nomination as part of the grant project and should budget for that work in their application.

Tell me when this program posts again

This round has closed. One email the morning after this program is posted again under a new number (we watch for about two years), and one more about a week before that round closes (the next morning, if it is already closer than that). That is all this sends — it is not a newsletter signup.
