Utah Heritage Foundation is the only nonprofit organization in Utah that is active on a statewide basis to foster the rehabilitation and, when necessary, protection of the treasures within our communities. Along with the monumental projects in which we have been involved, such as the Kearns (Utah Governor's) Mansion and Salt Lake's City and County Building, Utah Heritage Foundation has protected structures and provided technical assistance and low-interest renovation loans in smaller towns, including Bluff, Brigham City, Cedar City, Delta, Ephraim, Gunnison, Helper, Manti, Moab, Richmond, and Salina.
There is a pressing need in these communities for our preservation expertise to assist in saving Main Streets, former LDS meeting houses, pioneer-era structures, and other rich cultural resources comprising historic buildings and archaeological artifacts. Revitalization of our small-town Main Streets and iconic buildings enriches the quality of life for those who live in these communities, as well as the experience of visitors.
Utah's real estate market continues to exceed national averages, putting critical pressure on historic buildings at a rate that has never been witnessed before. We urgently request your support to protect and repair the state's irreplaceable landmarks before many more are demolished.
