American Express Partners in Preservation New Orleans

American Express and the National Trust for Historic Preservation announce a community-based historic preservation initiative supporting New Orleans as part of the American Express Partners in Preservation program. American Express is committing $400,000 in preservation grants to 9 sites in New Orleans and is encouraging the community to participate in the initiative by sharing stories, photos and comments about their favorite historic place in New Orleans.

The American Express Partners in Preservation program, launched in 2006, is a philanthropic initiative in which American Express, partnered with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, pledged $5 million over a five-year period toward preserving historic sites in the United States. This year's program was created to help preserve historic sites that reflect New Orleans' rich cultural history, architecture and landscape, while also engaging the community in preservation, driving tourism and stimulating economic development.
