Partnering to Protect Cultural Heritage: Congratulations to Recent Funding Awardees

We’re pleased to celebrate recent funding successes of institutions working with CCAHA. Our staff provides guidance on regional and national funding opportunities and offers free grant-writing support for projects involving CCAHA services, including conservation treatments, preservation assessments, professional development opportunities, and more. These efforts have proven successful: over the past five years, institutions we’ve supported have raised more than $2 million toward their preservation and conservation goals.
