Grants Available to Delaware Historic Homeowners--Deadline Nearing

Word has just come that the deadline for applying for an historic home grant from the Delaware Preservation fund is December 9, 2011.

Eligibilty criteria Projects are selected for their ability to make a big difference for the small investment offered. The Fund wants to see its money make a significant difference on its own. Generally the total cost of the project, or the component, should not exceed $10,000. For larger projects the value of the grant would be too diluted.

Guidelines are set forth on Preservation Delaware's website http://preservationde.org/delaware-preservation-fund/small-grants-program/
