ABOUT US

For over 60 years Historic Savannah Foundation has worked tirelessly to preserve and save the unique and fragile historic environment that has earned Savannah an international reputation. HSF is the oldest, and principal organization dedicated to historic preservation in the city. Founded in 1955 by a group of seven strong-willed women to save the 1820 Isaiah Davenport house from demolition, the foundation has gone on to become a national model for Preservation; and one of the strongest local voices – advocating for good public policy, strengthening neighborhoods, and putting its money where it’s mouth by using its renown Revolving Fund to purchase endangered, vacant historic homes and buildings. In short…making a difference.

This is who we are, and this is what we do. Won’t you join us?
