Preservation doesn’t just happen.
It takes a conscious…and focus…and stamina…and money.
Villagers take historic preservation seriously. And we take it personally. We raise our voices and we raise funds – supporting more than 100 local organizations to help save our past – all to enrich our future.
Becoming our preservation partner is easier than ever, with our online grant application process. The deadline for new grants is October 15, 2026 and new awards will be accounted January, 2027.

- Memorials will not be considered.
- The program is competitive and will be judged on the relative significance of the property, the degree of financial need and the assurance that the project can be completed within a two (2) year period after receiving grant approval.
Grant Applications open the end of August, the deadline for submission is October 15th and Grant Awards are announced early December.
