📚 PRESERVATION INITIATIVE: Historical Markers & Research
The Kingville Project is expanding its preservation work through a focused Historical Markers & Planning Initiative — a structured effort to document, protect, and prepare historic sites for long-term recognition and preservation.

With recent preservation funding secured and additional planning grants in progress, we are building a team to strengthen documentation, research, and professional assessments aligned with national preservation standards.

This is not just storytelling.
This is preservation planning.

🏛 How You Can Get Involved
We are seeking both community volunteers and professional expertise to support this next phase:

🔹 Community & Research Volunteers
Conduct and record oral history interviews
Assist with archival and document research
Gather and digitize historic photographs
Draft narratives for historical markers
Support community outreach and family engagement

🔹 Technical & Professional Support (Especially Needed)
Preservation architects
Landscape architects
Surveyors
Engineers
Contractors with historic structure experience
Preservation planners
Real estate feasibility consultants
Grant writers & fundraising advisors
Your expertise helps move this work from documentation → structured planning, aligned with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties.

🌟 Why This Matters
Through targeted preservation funding and planning efforts, we are:

Strengthening technical documentation
Building feasibility and assessment frameworks
Preparing for long-term site planning
Expanding public education and awareness
Positioning the project for larger funding opportunities
Preservation requires both community voice and professional guidance.

We need both.

📌 What This Supports
This initiative directly supports:

Historic structure documentation
Future landmark recognition efforts
Stronger planning and grant applications
Increased funding competitiveness
Long-term sustainability for the Kingville campus
A small grant at the right time can be catalytic.
We are in that catalytic phase.
