HWF works every day to keep historic properties intact and in place. But when a property is facing demolition, LAS serves as the best-case option in a worst-case scenario. Our team of staff and volunteers deconstruct historic properties, 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 elements during deconstruction and renovation projects. These elements are then sold to members of our community, who utilize them in restoration and rehabilitation projects. As an operation of HWF, LAS diverts tons of wood from the landfill and places these salvaged elements right back into area properties, helping to preserve our region's built history. Proceeds from LAS support HWF's preservation efforts.At LAS, 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 who specialize in repairing and restoring historic homes. LAS works to fill 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 historic home stewards, educating and empowering our community. These practical demonstrations promote self-sufficiency in area homeowners as taking on home improvement projects themselves can be far less costly than hiring help. Proper maintenance ensures that historic homes remain affordable and protects those homes for future generations. For over 55 years, HWF has preserved our region's built history utilizing a revolving grant fund, easements, education, and advocacy. Wilmington has eight National Register of Historic Places and HWF has played a pivotal role in the creation and designation of all of them. Beginning with the creation of the Wilmington Historic and Archeological District in 1974, HWF has helped establish the National Register of Historic Places of Market Street Mansion, Carolina Place, Carolina Heights, Masonboro Sound, Sunset Park, Westbrook-Ardmore, 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 properties. More than 700 plaques have been researched and approved for historic properties 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 grant 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 culture and heritage. HWF's Preservation Equity Fund helps to save properties on the City of Wilmington's Demolition by Neglect (DBN) list; this program serves our neighbors who are most in need of saving not just their homes, but our community's built history. In 2021, HWF committed itself to finding a solution for the 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 historic properties ensures a strong future for our historic homes and strengthens our local job market. HWF partners with the City of Wilmington in an effort to save properties 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 area homeowners, providing grant funds for necessary repairs. In addition to funding, HWF provides advice and support during the repair process. 264730 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 9 1 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 William Stolz 9107622511 152 North Front Street 46 Wilmington NC 28402 Stephanie Bolton Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Patricia Wilson President 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Andrew Hewitt Secretary 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Jan Brewington Vice President 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Larry Hovis Executive Committee Member at Large 4.00 X 0 0 0 Sylvia Kochler Board Member at Large 4.00 X 0 0 0 Robert Hotes Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Julius Jones Board Member at Large 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 Michael Murchison Treasurer 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Melissa Pudiwitr 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 Steve Wolf-Camplin Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 William Stolz Executive Director 40.00 X 19318 0 0 Phyllis Goodson Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Sydny Hess Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Beth Pancoe Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Isabelle Shepherd Former Interim Executive Director 40.00 X 34580 0 0 Travis J Gilbert Former Executive Director 40.00 X 26583 0 0 80481 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 30996 35950 405092 281402 472038 Plaque Sales 812900 10619 10619 Legacy Workshops 812900 116 116 10735 18642 18642 386755 665000 220535 348283 166220 316717 482937 482937 79994 32312 47682 47682 154637 154637 0 1032034 493672 0 66324 19318 6761 4830 7727 174334 101857 45527 26950 32842 16421 11495 4926 22495 11248 7873 3374 8279 8279 38055 15221 19028 3806 19052 9454 7707 1891 17705 8852 6695 2158 1439 719 614 106 762 381 381 11630 7792 3838 Legacy Architectural Sa 63825 63825 Other Program and Fundr 15900 11210 3752 938 Plaque Sales 10989 10989 Credit Losses 6325 6325 442950 264730 126344 51876 97030 652185 6325 2500 51423 178188 6508 2160 263981 16501 348525 247480 1046730 1051385 49214 278117 1605755 2412015 27532 6428 47743 308782 75275 315210 X 1328682 1867032 201798 229773 1530480 2096805 1605755 2412015 589084 -22759 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 115437 296363 401622 206936 238318 1258676 115437 296363 401622 206936 238318 1258676 245130 1013546 20670 17750 17962 18612 18642 93636 123436 146000 269436 1621748 0.62500 0.72480 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X X 40 6.83 40 0 0 1 1 65.00 85 1 1046730 1051385 1007992 1046730 560304 1007992 560304 560304 560304 560304 0.82000 0.18000 0 0 126480 126480 121520 520 121000 15981 15981 0 247480 Right-of-Use Assets 276413 Website 1500 Due from Other Funds 204 278117 ST Lease Liability 58279 LT Lease Liability 250403 Due to Other Funds 100 308782 1163912 -22759 -22759 1186671 -154637 -154637 1032034 597587 154637 154637 442950 0 442950 Part II, Line 9: Footnote Disclosure Part XI, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: Legacy Architectural Salvage Program -154,637.
