WHAT?
The African American Heritage Preservation Program (AAHPP) provides capital grants up to $100,000 to assist in the preservation of buildings, sites, or communities of historical and cultural importance to the African American experience in Maryland.
Local governments, along with non-profit agencies, business, and individuals are eligible to apply.
Grant funds can be applied to costs for:
- rehabilitation
- restoration
- acquisition
- pre-construction

This competitive program, offered once per year, is supported through an annual appropriation from the Maryland General Assembly, and is administered as a joint partnership of the Maryland Commission on African American History and Culture (MCAAHC) and the Maryland Historical Trust (MHT).
