Preserving Heritage: The Next Great Save Competition

Canadians love their historic places and step up when these treasured places are at risk. The Next Great Save competition empowers communities to save heritage places with a total of $65,000 in cash prizes up for grabs!

Generously provided by Ecclesiastical Insurance, the competition offers a grand prize of $50,000 along with two runners-up prizes of $10,000 and $5,000. These prizes will go towards advancing projects that protect, adapt, renew, or improve heritage places for the future, inspiring us all in the process.
