The Mission of the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation is to promote an appreciation of Georgia's diverse historic resources and provide for their protection and use to preserve, enhance and revitalize Georgia's communities.
The Vision of the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation is for Georgians to understand and appreciate the irreplaceable value of historic buildings and places and their relevance to modern life. We envision Georgians who promote careful stewardship and active use of these diverse resources and recognize the economic and social benefits of preservation. We envision communities where new development complements and reinforces thriving downtowns and historic neighborhoods, contributing to a healthy and enriched humane environment.
The goals of the Trust are:
To inform Georgians about their state's historic resources and diverse cultural heritage
To increase the number of historic buildings, places and related landscapes that are protected, preserved and actively used across the state
To broaden awareness of the enormous economic impact of preservation as an essential tool for community revitalization and quality of life enhancement
To provide preservation information and technical assistance for projects
To preserve, restore and manage historic properties of exceptional significance for public enjoyment and education
To use an understanding of Georgia's past to better prepare for Georgia's future.
