Hey, folks,
I am helping a heritage farm association in Alabama with developing
their strategic plan. The building they wish to use is a New Deal
constructed rock commissary that is incredible. One of their board
members currently owns it and has agreed to sell it to their 501(c)3
for $50,000. I actually think that's a good idea. If the 501(c)3 can
demonstrate the ability to purchase the building, odds are, they will
have the ability to maintain it.
They currently have between $8-$9,000 towards the purchase price.
Now for my question. For those who are based out of historical
structures, what methods did you use to obtain the funds needed to
purchase it? Was it fundraising drives, some type of grant, etc?
Thanks!
Garet Bleddynn
