The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation is a statewide, tax exempt 501(c)3 nonprofit organization founded in 1976 to safeguard Washington’s historic places through advocacy, education, collaboration and stewardship.
The Trust works to be an effective problem-solver when local preservationists need help on issues that threaten historic buildings. They play a critical role in helping save these landmarks by using tools such as their Most Endangered Historic Properties program and their Valerie Sivinski Washington Preserves Fund to provide media attention, technical help, and small amounts of financial assistance to help insure that they are saved. As part of their first foray into heritage tourism, the Trust recently launched a new interactive travel guide Revisiting Washington: A Guide to the Evergreen State.
Kevin Daniels serves as an ex-officio member on the Board of Directors. For more information on their mission or how you can participate please go to their website.
