Gullah Geechee Heritage Preservation Project

The Gullah Geechee Heritage Preservation Project, a 2-year initiative, is a multi-jurisdictional collaboration to support documentation, recognition and preservation of historic Gullah Geechee/African-American Ancestral Communities and their significant historic and cultural sites. This program is made possible by a $75,000 grant from the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF) administered by the National Park Service, matching funds from the City of Charleston and Preservation Society of Charleston; and significant contributions in staff time and support from Charleston County and the Town of Mt. Pleasant.
