ANNUAL FUND
With Your Help, We Can Leave a Legacy
When you support the Blue Grass Trust for Historic Preservation, you aren’t just supporting the preservation of physical places. You’re advocating for the protection, promotion and revitalization of the shared stories that bind us together - the stories that help people feel connected to their place.
What we keep, keeps us.
Give to the Blue Grass Trust today and leave a legacy for future generations.
Stand With Us to Protect Central Kentucky’s History
Every day, the Blue Grass Trust hears from someone who wants to do the right thing for a historic place. A homeowner trying to repair original windows. A congregation caring for a landmark church. A neighborhood working to protect the character of their block. Often, they simply don’t know where to begin.
That’s where the Blue Grass Trust steps in. Through our preservation help desk, consulting services, tax credit guidance, and educational programs, we help people make informed decisions that preserve the places that define Central Kentucky.
Much of this work happens quietly, one phone call, one site visit, and one conversation at a time. But the impact is lasting. Because of our supporters, historic homes are repaired rather than replaced, community landmarks continue to serve new generations, and neighborhoods retain the character that makes them special.
We invite you to support this work with a gift to the Annual Fund. Your generosity ensures that when the next call for help comes, the Blue Grass Trust will be here to answer it.
Thank you for being an essential partner in this urgent, vital work.
