Through the support of our members, the National Trust for Historic Preservation protects our nation’s historic places and their stories, but its reach goes far beyond that. Historic Preservation creates new possibilities for local economies, for environmental sustainability, and for thriving communities. As a privately funded nonprofit organization, we could not do this important work without our members.
We hope you will join us and play an active role in the preservation movement—strengthening communities, creating healthier environments, and fostering a more just society.
In appreciation of your support, you will receive the following benefits:
Preservation magazine. Our award-winning magazine is filled with stunning photographs and engaging articles on emerging issues in preservation and inspiring stories about how committed individuals are making a difference in their communities, as well as our popular Historic Properties section.
