Heritage Preservation Awarded Grant to
Aid Hurricane Sandy Recovery
Heritage Preservation has been awarded $15,000 by the New York Community Trust to assist Hurricane Sandy recovery efforts in coordination with Alliance for Response New York City (AFR NYC). Funding will aid hard-hit artists, museums, libraries, archives, and galleries by providing critical supplies to support the efforts of conservators and collections professionals deployed across the city.

Heritage Preservation and AFR NYC will work with others offering assistance to coordinate the distribution of these supplies. AFR NYC will continue to link institutions that are suffering with volunteer conservators, collections professionals, and salvage contractors. The generous funding provided by the New York Community Trust will enable both Heritage Preservation and AFR NYC to supply those professionals with the tools they need to successfully move the cultural community forward.
