Heritage Treasures Day was established by the Heritage Lottery Fund in the UK and has been working to preserve important parts of human history since 1994. Since their creation they have donated close to £8 Billion to support over 40,000 projects, every penny of it generated through the National Lottery. The organisation has multiple funding programs, each providing different amounts of funding for different projects. Sharing Heritage is for local heritage sites ranging from personal memories to the conservation of wildlife. Their “Our Heritage program” provides grants ranging from £10,000 to £100,000 and is used for the preservation of archaeological sites, rare wildlife, and museum collections. Heritage Grants, on the other hand, are for large preservation projects of any kind and is one of the sources for preservation and restoration work on Stonehenge. Heritage Treasures Day celebrates the efforts of this organisation and raises awareness about the importance of protecting and preserving our shared history throughout the world. Their projects cover a large gamut of preservation efforts, including tracing heritage, the history of parks, and some of the most important pieces of architecture in the United Kingdom.
