With our sights ahead, we refocus and redouble our efforts to advocate for a future Charleston that honors and protects its people, places, culture, and community.  We are expanding our concept of preservation beyond just the built environment—to include its ability to ensure vibrant communities for its people and culture. We are tackling issues of resiliency, sustainability, and affordability, while advocating for thoughtful, smart growth that reflects the highest principles of urban design, architecture, and our community’s values. From our easement and covenant programs to our advocacy supporting historic settlement communities to the launch of the Common Cause Loan Fund, Historic Charleston Foundation will remain a significant voice and authority in the Charleston community and region for many years to come.
