HWF works every day to keep historic buildings intact and in place. But when a structure is facing demolition, Legacy serves as the best-case option in a worst-case scenario. Our team of staff and volunteers deconstruct old buildings, salvaging architectural elements (e.g., flooring, doors, windows, door knobs, fireplace mantles, newel posts, and more). LAS also accepts donations of pre-1960s architectural salvage from homeowners and contractors, who have removed such features during renovations. These materials are then sold to members of our community, who utilize them in restoration and rehabilitation projects. An operation of HWF, Legacy Architectural Salvage diverts tons of wood from the landfill, and places these salvaged elements right back into area homes, helping to preserve our region's historic fabric. Proceeds from LAS support HWF's preservation efforts. At Legacy Architectural Salvage, free workshops are offered on a regular basis, covering various topics related to home repair and maintenance. Wilmington is blessed with a large supply of historic homes, but unfortunately, there's a limited number of home improvement professionals in town who specialize in repairing and restoring old properties. LAS works to fill in that gap, serving as a much-needed hub for knowledge on how to preserve and protect our built history. Through these workshops, LAS connects historic preservation professionals with old home stewards educating and empowering our community. These practical demonstrations promote self-sufficiency in area homeowners and taking on home improvement projects themselves can be a far less costly option than hiring help. Proper maintenance ensures that old homes remain affordable and protects those houses for future generations. For over 50 years, HWF has preserved our region's built history utilizing a revolving fund, preservation easements, education, and advocacy. Wilmington has eight National Register of Historic Places Districts and the HWF has played a pivotal role in the creation and designation of all of them. Beginning with the creation of the Wilmington historic district in 1974, HWF has helped establish the National Register Districts of Masonboro Sound, Carolina Place, Westbrook Ardmore, Sunset Park, Carolina Heights, and Brookwood. HWF has one of the most prolific local plaque programs in the country, featuring six distinctive plaques to honor a variety of historic places. More than 700 plaques have been researched and approved for historic buildings throughout New Hanover County, NC, and beyond. Another educational program is Tar Heels Go Walking, a walking tour for New Hanover County's third-grade students; HWF also holds free walking tours each month for adults, covering a variety of topics related to architecture and history. In the last three years, HWF has used its revolving fund for the relocation of 310 Bladen (an 1890s bungalow set for demolition) and the restoration of Reaves Chapel, a local landmark to Gullah-Geechee heritage and culture. HWF's Preservation Equity Fund helps to save homes on the City of Wilmington's Demolition by Neglect list; this program serves our neighbors who are most in need-saving not just their home, but our community's collective history. In 2021, HWF committed itself to finding a solution for perpetual care of Maides Cemetery, a historic African-American cemetery (located in New Hanover County) with graves dating back to the 19th century. Currently, HWF is assisting Giblem Lodge the second-oldest Black Masonic Temple in the state-to prepare a local landmark application, engage consultants, and apply for grant funding to support dire repairs. HWF has also partnered with Cape Fear Community College to create a historic preservation construction certification. Training more contractors to properly restore old buildings ensures a strong future for our historic homes and businesses and strengthens our local job market. Historic Wilmington Foundation partners with the City of Wilmington in an effort to save houses on the Demolition by Neglect (DBN) list. Grant funding is received from the 1772 Foundation which helps identify endangered properties and then HWF works with eligible homeowners, providing grant money for necessary repairs. In addition to funding, HWF provides advice and support during the repair process. 333803 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 8 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 19 19 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 NC X X X Isabelle Shepherd 9107622511 211 Orange St Wilmington NC 28401 Isabelle Shepherd Interim Executive Director 40.00 X 38000 0 0 Stephanie Bolton President 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Trisha Wilson Vice President & Treasurer 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Andrew Hewitt Secretary 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Jan Brewington Board Member at Large 4.00 X 0 0 0 Larry Hovis Board Member at Large 4.00 X 0 0 0 Kelli Jordan Executive Committee at Large 4.00 X 0 0 0 Sylvia Kochler Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Hotes Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Julius Jones Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Kathy King Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Beth Looney Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Amanda Mason Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Murchison Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Melissa Pudiwitr Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Matt Scharf Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Gregg Thomas Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Cara Ward Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Travis J Gilbert Former Executive Director 40.00 X 62524 0 0 Steve Wolf-Camplin Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 100524 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 29687 211142 84392 240829 Plaque Sales 812900 8330 8330 Legacy Workshop 812900 126 126 8456 18612 18612 285094 158017 127077 127077 127077 89592 38026 51566 51566 148419 148419 0 446540 135533 0 70178 235407 118595 62627 54185 43577 21789 15252 6536 16987 8494 5945 2548 7421 7421 31885 12754 15943 3188 5048 2524 2019 505 13461 6731 5384 1346 1003 502 401 100 7704 3852 3852 13730 9199 4531 Other Program and Fundr 124073 117828 4996 1249 LAS Expense 24153 24153 Plaque Sales Expense 7382 7382 Bad Debt Expense 3486 3486 535317 333803 131857 69657 214123 97030 11106 6325 115449 51423 1697 6508 414610 66085 356228 348525 1007992 1046730 25637 49214 1732232 1605755 27003 27532 5450 0 29864 47743 62317 75275 X 1421903 1328682 248012 201798 1669915 1530480 1732232 1605755 -88777 -50658 0 X 0 0 0 X 348758 115437 296363 401622 206936 1369116 348758 115437 296363 401622 206936 1369116 1369116 25299 20670 17750 17962 18612 100293 150165 123436 146000 419601 1889010 0.72480 0.67950 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X X 1 1 1007992 1046730 560304 1007992 560304 560304 560304 560304 560304 560304 0 0 88815 88815 289122 29654 259468 36673 36431 242 348525 ST Lease Liability 23729 LT Lease Liability 23914 Due to other funds 100 47743 544301 -50658 -50658 594959 -148419 -148419 446540 683736 148419 148419 535317 0 535317 Part II, Line 9: Footnote Disclosure Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: Legacy Architectural Salvage Program -148,419.
