The National Trust for Historic Preservation is a private, nonprofit membership organization dedicated to saving historic places and revitalizing America's communities. By 1995, government funds accounted for {dollar}7 million of its {dollar}35 million total budget. But the Trust's efforts were often controversial with members of Congress, and the annual appropriation process required the Trust to lobby vigorously on its own behalf. The case highlights the transition away from federal funding, by which a more diverse structure of revenue enabled the National Trust to pursue a more expansive agenda and increase its effectiveness as an advocate for historic preservation.
