1.7 Million Reasons to Give
Did you know that the Trust Board is currently working with local grant recipients and agencies to administer the over $1.7 million it has secured to preserve historic structures within the Reserve and putting the community back to work? This includes funds from both the community-supported Ebey's Forever Grant Program as well as the WA State-funded Ebey's Preservation Grants. It's incredible.
As Allyson Brooks, State Historic Preservation State Historic Preservation Officer and Executive Director of the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation acknowledged the uniqueness of the Reserve and the history it preserves: “In conjunction with the Ebey’s Reserve Trust Board, we are delighted to be able to provide support for the rehabilitation of [awarded projects within the Reserve]. Ebey’s Reserve is a unique historical entity and there is no other comparable historic landscape in the United States. We are grateful that the Washington State legislature recognized the historical importance of Ebey’s Reserve and provided the financial tools to maintain this nationally significant historic resource.”
This is just one example of the work you make possible with your financial support.
