The grant will be used to fund the installation of data loggers throughout the Archives building in order to ensure optimum preservation conditions for the American Province’s documents and artifacts. The Archives’ eligibility for the grant was determined through its earlier participation in the Risk Assessment track of the Philadelphia Stewardship Program, also funded by the William Penn Foundation, through the Conservation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts.

We are thankful to the William Penn Foundation and the Conversation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts for their continued support!
