When the Office of History and Archaeology can, it makes these funds available from its annual Historic Preservation Fund grant to help owners of historic properties with rehabilitation projects. Individuals, non-profit organizations, businesses, Native and local governmental entities can apply. All work must follow The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Treatment of Historic Properties, and owners must execute a covenant to protect the historic character of the property. The grants are for a maximum of $24,000, must be matched one-to-one and are awarded on a competitive basis. Contact Jean Ayers at 907-269-8694 or jean.ayers@alaska.gov
