About the Washington Trust
Mission Statement
We partner with communities to preserve, share, and shape the future of historic places in Washington State.
Values Statement
We Are People-Centered.
As we approach our work we will listen to the needs of local communities and adapt our work to the moment.
We commit to being:
Inclusive
- Amplify the many voices of preservation and heritage in Washington.
- Assess preservation’s historic complicity/biases and make change.
Proactive
- Be bold, creative, and solutions-oriented.
- Lead the charge in preservation advocacy.
Empowering
- Offer tools that enable local community builders to effect change.
- Connect preservation resources to economic recovery.
Approachable
- Be the organization you turn to to help save places that matter.
- Bring inspiration, hope, and (dare we say) fun to preservation.
Land Acknowledgment Statement
We acknowledge that the State of Washington represents the usual and accustomed lands of many tribes who play a major role in the history of our state. We honor and pay our respect to our indigenous neighbors who protect and preserve these lands and waterways and who have done so since time immemorial.
