Support Historic Albany Foundation
For more than fifty years, Historic Albany Foundation has worked to preserve, protect, and promote the architecture and cultural heritage that make Albany unique. Your generosity helps safeguard the irreplaceable buildings, stories, and spaces that define our city.
Every gift (no matter the size!) directly supports our mission. Together, we can ensure Albany’s historic places continue to inspire future generations.
Why Your Gift Matters
Preservation & Restoration
Your donation funds hands-on preservation efforts, like our work at 48 Hudson, the Van Ostrande-Radliff House, which will become the Historic Albany Foundation headquarters in 2026. You also help us provide technical services and support to the community about tax credits, restoration, and stabilization of historic properties.
Education & Advocacy
With your support, we provide programming, tours, and resources that help the community connect with Albany’s past, while advocating for a thoughtful future.
Architectural Salvage Warehouse & Tool Library
Contributions sustain our warehouse operations, helping us rescue architectural elements, reduce waste, and provide affordable materials for restoration projects. Plus, it keeps our affordable Tool Lending Library open to the community for rentals!
