Partners in Preservation -- Your Vote Makes A Difference
American Express, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the World Monuments Fund are teaming up for "Partners in Preservation". Through October 31st you can vote once per day (so vote often!) for a location that you'd like to see get grant funds for help with restoration. Oakland's Fox Theatre is on the list, as is the Cleveland Cascades. There are 23 other sites to consider throughout the Bay Area.

Ten to twelve of the 25 projects will receive grants in the range of $50,000 to $100,000 dollars and will be notified in November 2006.

Think about how improving these two projects would improve Oakland as a City. Make a difference and vote once per day! Click HERE to go to the Partners in Preservation website.
