Historic Properties Assistance Program

Saint Mary's

The HPA program assists and encourages individuals, community groups, societies, Yukon First Nations and businesses to become involved in the heritage preservation process.

Created in recognition of the need to preserve Yukon’s many privately owned historic properties, this funding program preserves our heritage by making technical and financial assistance available to those who wish to undertake preservation, restoration, development and/or interpretation of their historic properties.

This program makes available contributions on a matching basis each year to applicants who own sites that are deemed historically significant, and whose plans for preservation of those sites are in accordance with these guidelines.

The application deadline is March 1.

We strongly recommend that applicants contact the Historic Sites Unit for assistance before submitting an application.
