Required next actionKeep as verification-held draft. Identify eligible Georgia 501(c)(3) historic-site stewards with a current exterior rehabilitation or protective-system project, confirm ownership and prior-grant closure, and verify the November 20 deadline clock time/time zone before ORIGINAL outreach. Then complete CRM Contact, Email_Opt_Out, permanent hard-bounce, Deal, Atlas_Email_Queue, prior-send, and cross-lane deduplication checks.
Broad Eligibility
Georgia organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, or an approved fiscal-agent agreement with a 501(c)(3), pursuing eligible historic-preservation work. Previously awarded matching grants must be closed. Buildings currently in use as schools or churches are not eligible.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score 64/100. Legitimate current Georgia historic-preservation opportunity with a clear $10,000 ceiling and 1:1 match, but narrow eligible uses and modest award size. N9+ Fit 0/100. QC Healthcare Fit 0/100. Dr. Miltie direct-applicant fit 0/100. No ORIGINAL outreach until an organization-specific eligible preservation project and all deadline/CRM/queue/deduplication controls are verified.
Opportunity Overview
The 1772 Foundation, in cooperation with The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation, is accepting Letters of Interest for its 2027 Georgia historic preservation grant cycle. The program supports qualifying exterior rehabilitation and protective-system projects at historic sites in Georgia.
Funding
Applicants may request up to $10,000. Awards require a 1:1 match.
Eligibility
Eligible applicants must have IRS 501(c)(3) status or an approved fiscal-agent agreement with a 501(c)(3) organization. Any previously awarded matching grant must be closed before a new application is eligible. Buildings currently in use as schools or churches are not eligible for this program.
Allowable Work
Current eligible uses include exterior painting and finishes, surface restoration, fire-detection, lightning-protection and security systems, repairs or restoration of porches, roofs and windows, structural foundation and sill repair or replacement, and chimney or masonry repointing and repair. Rehabilitation work must follow the Secretary of the Interior standards. Projects should generally be completed within one year of award.
Application and Deadline
Organizations seeking consideration must submit a one-page letter of inquiry to The Georgia Trust’s Director of Preservation. The letter must identify the historic resource and address, ownership status, proposed work, amount requested, available or planned matching funds, and expected completion timeframe. Letters of inquiry are due Friday, November 20, 2026. The official program page does not publish an exact deadline clock time or deadline-specific time zone, so Atlas does not infer one.
Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 64/100. The program is current and well-defined, but the award ceiling is modest and the eligible project scope is narrow. N9+ Fit: 0/100. QC Healthcare Fit: 0/100. Healthcare technology should not be forced into a historic-preservation capital program.
Verification hold: Atlas may continue research and applicant qualification, but ORIGINAL outreach must fail closed until a specific eligible historic property project is verified and all recipient, CRM, opt-out, bounce, duplicate, authoritative send-history, and deadline requirements are satisfied.
