The
Ypsilanti Heritage Foundation is dedicated to the belief that Ypsilanti's
wealth of historic architecture is one of its greatest resources. The conservation,
rehabilitation and utilization of historic architecture adds immeasurably
to the betterment of the whole community. The foundation, a non-profit
organization founded in 1974, seeks to increase public understanding and
appreciation of these architectural links with the past, to educate the
community in the philosophy and purpose of historic preservation, and to
encourage public and private preservation efforts.
The YHF encourages
public and private preservation efforts by:
publishing the
bimonthly Heritage News,
hosting informative
bimonthly public programs on preservation or historical topics,
presenting YHF
Marker Awards annually for outstanding
restoration or preservation of historic buildings,
sponsoring an Annual
Historic
Home Tour in August, and
making financial
contributions to local preservation projects.
