The National Park Service’s (NPS) Semiquincentennial Grant Program will support the physical preservation of a broad variety of cultural resources associated with the founding of America as a nation in commemoration of the country's semiquincentennial (250th anniversary).
These grants
are funded by the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF), administered by the NPS, and will fund physical preservation to properties listed in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, including buildings, sites, structures, objects, or historic districts.
Grants are awarded through a competitive process and do not require non-Federal match, though match may be considered as a competitive factor.
State owned properties will receive priority per Congressional directive.
