[MassHistPres] Grant Writing

[Frank Gould]

Hello,

I work with a historic community within Massachusetts--Martha's Vineyard Camp Meeting Association. We are in the process of restoring historic structures within this community, which is comprised of over 300 cottages and structures, and in particular erecting period lighting and restoring the parks. 

Has anyone had any experience in working with grant writers successful in securing funds for historic restorations?  Are there grant writers who focus on historic preservation and restoration?  How are these grant writers typically compensated?

Does anyone have any recommendations regarding grant writers?

Thank you,

Frank Gould
