Since 1967 the Athens-Clarke Heritage Foundation has given out over 300 preservation awards. The preservation awards represent an important part of the mission of the ACHF. They are an opportunity for us to say thank you to individuals and groups in the community who contribute to historic preservation. Whether it is through the actual rehabilitation of a building or through volunteer efforts or through education, all of the people and organizations recognized trough our awards program represent the heart and soul of the culture of preservation that the Heritage Foundation strives to nurture.
