Jesse Ball duPont Fund Matching Donations
The Jesse Ball duPont Foundation has graciously approved the Ximenez-Fatio House Museum to participate in the 2023 Match Award Program.
Between November 1st, 2023 and December 31st, 2023, all donations to the NSCDA-FL made only online will be counted toward a $12,500 match from the Foundation. NO match can be more than $500, but donors may make multiple online donations if they would like to do that.
All donations will be most appreciated. Funds will be used to support major restoration and preservation projects at the Museum.
Some of the projects the match program will directly impact:
- Exterior and interior mortar repair and lime-washing of the museum.
- Restoring the courtyard balcony floor to original lumber and specifications.
- Restoring 42 first and second floors window framing, glass and glazing to authentic specifications
- Restore seven third-floor dormer windows to authentic specifications.
- Restoring and re-capping five chimneys to prevent bird-invasion.
- Retore tabby floors along the loggia and first floor rooms where needed.
