Historic Savannah Foundation

Historic Savannah Foundation is a private, non-profit historic preservation organization supported by a dedicated membership of over 700. The mission of Historic Savannah Foundation (HSF) is to preserve and protect Savannah’s heritage through advocacy, education and community involvement. HSF was established in 1955 to save the 1820 Isaiah Davenport House from demolition. From this initial project, we launched a Revolving Fund that has helped save more than 350 buildings. HSF has a staff of eight, an annual budget of $1 million, and a variety of outreach programs that support our mission and educate the public about the benefits of historic preservation.
