cademic Scholarships
Each year The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation awards two $1,000 academic scholarships to
encourage the study of historic preservation and related fields. Recipients are chosen on the basis of
leadership and academic achievement. The Georgia Trust established its scholarship program to ensure that
knowledgeable leaders continue to enter the field of historic preservation.
These scholarships are presented to encourage the pursuit of degrees that will lead to working in the
preservation field and thereby assist the Georgia Trust in its goals to conserve Georgia’s built environment,
inform the public about the benefits of historic preservation and assist individuals and their communities in
their restoration and preservation projects.
