Your donation increases our ability to preserve, reuse and pass forward Oregon’s historic and endangered places. As a member, you’ll receive discounts on HPLO programs, home tours, and field trips.

More importantly, you’re helping to fund field services such as educational workshops, technical preservation advice, research, site visits, and advocacy to protect the bridges, barns, homes, and Main Streets that make Oregon, OREGON.

"The HPLO has been immensely important in helping Oregon City save our 1844 Francis Ermatinger House. When the HPLO placed it on the Most Endangered Places List, many stepped up to offer support."
– Doug Neeley, Mayor, Oregon City

Leave a Legacy

We can put our imprint on the future by preserving the past.

Passing forward the places that tell the story of Oregon, embody our cultural identity, and make our communities authentic and livable is one of the most significant legacies we can leave to future generations.

We invite you to include the HPLO in your estate planning. In addition to cash bequests, the HPLO welcomes real and personal property, annuities, or equities.

Donations may be unrestricted, going wherever the need is greatest, or designated for:

The HPLO Stewardship Funds, used specifically for National Register Nominations, Easement Procurement & Management
The preservation of Oregon’s Most Endangered Places
The Historic Preservation League of Oregon Endowment Fund held by the Oregon Community Fund
