The National Park Service has announced that the process used to apply for Save America’s Treasures grants has been changed, due to the current inaccessibility of the regular federal grants site (www.grants.gov).  To apply for the grants, it is now required to register for a SAT application number and to download forms from a new application website -- which can be accessed by clicking here.  Applications must be received before May 22, 2009.

Save America's Treasures grants are available to properties with documented national historic significance.  According to the SAT website, it is "one of the largest and most successful grant programs for the protection of our nation’s endangered and irreplaceable and endangered cultural heritage. Grants are available for preservation and/or conservation work on nationally significant intellectual and cultural artifacts and historic structures and sites."
