Historic Preservation for Obama

I am here for Friends

About Me


A New Use for An Old Block © Erik (and Sometimes Jessica) The Mission of HPfO HISTORIC PRESERVATION for OBAMA.org ( HPfO for short!)
The core of historic preservation is resource stewardship. More than in any election in recent memory, the 2008 presidential election is about the stewardship of resources-- natural, built and cultural. The next president will have a profound opportunity to shape the national dialogue on these important questions which is why preservationist can't afford to sit on the sidelines in this election. And, why our next president should be Barack Obama.
HPfO is a grassroots network of people from the historic preservation and rehabilitation communities. We seek to promote the resurgence of America's older and historic neighborhoods by supporting Barack Obama for President.
Although our issues of affordable housing, sustainability and heritage may be well known, the preservation movement sometimes isn't. To combat this, another aim of HPfO is to let Barack Obama know that there is a strong constituency of folks involved in historic rehab and preservation eager to work with him to revitalize our communities.
