6 Grants Awarded to Historic Southern Site with the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund

6 Grants Awarded to Historic Southern Site with the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund

On July 6, 2018, the National Trust announced its first class of grant award recipients in conjunction with the newly established African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund at a gathering of hundreds of thousands of people at the annual Essence Festival in New Orleans.

The Action Fund is a $25 million multi-year national initiative aimed at uplifting the largely overlooked contributions of African Americans by protecting and restoring African American historic sites and uncovering hidden stories of African Americans connected to historic sites across the nation. As part of this mission, the National Trust’s Action Fund awarded a total of more than $1 million in grants to support grassroots efforts to preserve sites across the country.

Grants were given across four categories: capacity building, project planning, capital, and programming and interpretation.

​The Grand Old Lady National Association of Colored Women’s Club, Inc. and Youth Affiliates

Washington, D.C. Purchased in 1954 by the National Association of Colored Women’s Clubs Inc. (NACWC), The Grand Old Lady is the first permanent location of the NACWC, where it continues as the home for its administrative offices and historic documents and artifacts as well as a space for special events and meeting space for the D.C. club. The NACWC, founded by Josephine St. Pierre Ruffin, Mary Church Terrell, Harriet Tubman, and others, is seen by many as the founding organization for the black preservation movement, when in 1917 they appealed to citizens of Washington, D.C. to save Cedar Hill, the home of abolitionist Frederick Douglass.

Shockoe Bottom Preservation Virginia

Richmond, Virginia. A national center of the U.S slave trade in the 19th century, Shockoe Bottomwas home to a collection of auction houses, offices, slave jails, and residences of the prominent slave traders.
