THE HERITAGE PRESERVATION TRUST  RECEIVES GRANT
FROM THE HOME DEPOT FOUNDATION

DAYTONA BEACH, FL  Feb. 20, 2012 – Through its Community Impact Grants Program, The Home Depot® Foundation has awarded $4400 to the Heritage Preservation Trust.    The donation will be used to renovate the Lilian Place Historic Site.

“We desperately needed repairs of the porch and wood areas of the 1884 building plus work on the riverfront landscape.  The old Carriage House also needed steps and wood replaced,” said Nancy Long, president and founder of the Trust.  “We were delighted to receive a $4400 gift card from The Home Depot Foundation – our volunteers were so happy to get the supplies they needed! Thanks to the Port Orange Home Depot store, esp. Patrick and Bonnie, who have organized the workers from various stores to volunteer on March 2 to repair and renovate the historic site.”

The Home Depot Foundation’s Community Impact Grants Program supports the work that local nonprofit organizations, public schools and other community organizations are doing to improve the physical health of their neighborhoods.  

“We are delighted to support local volunteer projects aimed at creating and maintaining stable and healthy communities,” said Kelly Caffarelli, president, The Home Depot Foundation.  “The Heritage Preservation Trust deserves enormous credit for the work it is doing, and we are glad to be part of their efforts.”   

About The Home Depot Foundation
In 2011, The Home Depot Foundation committed $30 million over three years to nonprofit organizations dedicated to improving the homes of economically disadvantaged veterans.  Through Team Depot, the company's associate-led volunteer program, thousands of Home Depot associates volunteer their time and talents to positively transform neighborhoods and perform basic repairs and modifications to homes and to the facilities serving veterans with critical housing needs.

Our mission...

The mission of the Heritage Preservation Trust is to work for preservation and restoration of historical artifacts, buildings, lands, and sites in Volusia
County through educational programs, fund raising, and grant acquisition.

WE WELCOME DONATION OF ANTIQUES AROUND 1890 OR EARLIER.

Preserving Heritage in Our Area...

Many lovely homes and historical
sites have already been destroyed because they are not protected by a local historical overlay and proper zoning. Historic properties are an important part of our culture and provide a positive economic and social impact on communities. Residents in our historic
neighborhoods are working hard to stabilize and improve their properties and need everyone's help.

Working together ...

We are a non-profit organization established by concerned citizens to help preserve the architectural and historical heritage of the Volusia County area.

Please join as a member and become a FRIEND OF LILIAN PLACE!

About The
Heritage Preservation Trust

The Trust is a non-profit group started in 2006 with the mission to educate and promote the need for historical preservation.  The group was granted funding from Volusia County ECHO to purchase Lilian Place Historic House, the oldest house on Daytona Beachside. Built in 1884, the house was abandoned and deteriorating until the Trust took possession and repaired and renovated the site.  The renovation continues as the house is now a historical museum and cultural site open to the public and constantly being improved and expanded.

More events...

In December 2009, our community banded together to save an important piece of Volusia County history, the 127-year old Lilian Place. The oldest home on the beachside, this 3-story building is an excellent example of Italianate High Victorian architecture and one of only two such structures in this style remaining in the county.
Thanks to the generosity of people like you, plans are underway to restore Lilian Place to its original 1884 grandeur. Our grand opening this past June was a huge success, with over 200 people in attendance to witness the reopening of this historic gem. We have made a lot of progress in the last year and a half but still have a long way to go.
In order to preserve Lilian Place for future generations and continue our mission of historic preservation and education, we have established the Heritage Preservation Trust Endowment Fund .
