Printed on 100% recycled paper. tpl.org © 2021 The Trust for Public Land Saving Places Index REPORT Message from The 1772 Foundation The 1772 Foundation and Historic Macon Foundation are at the forefront of testing a new model for community conservation. The fields of land conservation and historic preservation have been operating in discrete silos in the United States. Yet in the United Kingdom, these fields are blended into one organization that protects special places of all kinds. The broad-based support created by their blended conservation work is extraordinary. We would like to see that model more fully explored in the United States. Our three groups have been exploring blended community conservation efforts through a new framework. Using facilitated community visioning sessions and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) mapping, we are working on programs that will create integrated whole-community maps, helping citizens from all walks of life to identify and visualize high-priority areas that reflect the character of each unique community. This process is driven solely by the desires of the residents — to protect what matters to them, both land and buildings. The 1772 Foundation has provided over $16 million in funding over the past 10 years to land conservation and revolving funds. It is our goal to explore how we might combine these two efforts using citizen-driven data and holistic maps to create “revolving funds for special places.” We believe that blended conservancies based on data asset mapping are an important model to consider if we are to fully rally people behind holistic community conservation.
