HBCU Grants
15.932
In 1988, the National Park Service established the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Preservation grant program to document, preserve, and stabilize structures on HBCU campuses. The HBCU grant program exists to repair historic structures on campuses of Historically Black Colleges and Universities that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places either individually or as contributing to a National Register historic district. Projects must meet major program selection criteria and all work must meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation.

Three Historically Black Colleges and Universities were awarded funding.
This program listing was reactivated in FY2020, so no funding was awarded. If funding is awarded in future fiscal years the number of awards will be contingent on funding and number of acceptable projects. Projects will include preservation of historic structures at HBCUs.
Historic structures on 20 campuses classified as HBCUs were able to be restored and preserved for future use by students and faculty. The program helps the universities retain their historic fabric.
In FY2022, the program provided 14 grants for pre-preservation and preservation projects at HBCUs
Accomplishments include repairs to the Benedict College historic site, Antisdel Chapel, to include repairing stained glass windows and pers, upgrades to electrical wiring and lighting, and exterior and interior painting. Additional accomplishments include a project at Dillard University for repairs to the historic site, the Howard House.
