Community Asked to Support Historic Preservation Efforts in Hicksville

The Hicksville Historical Society is seeking help in preserving one of the most cherished pieces of the village’s history. The beautiful historic stained-glass windows at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church are in need of significant repair and restoration. The total cost of this project is $72,750 – substantial, but necessary to protect this important landmark. A program of sponsorships and gifts have been established in the hope that members of the community will want to support the project.

$7,000 — Full Window Sponsorship: Includes a personalized plaque placed at the window you sponsor.

$3,500 — Window Co-Sponsorship: Includes a shared plaque with you and your co-sponsor.

And while the stained-glass restoration is by far the largest undertaking, there are also several ongoing needs that help maintain the historic spaces:

$4,500 — Replacement of the air-conditioning unit in the Land Office.

Maintaining a controlled environment is vital to the preservation of documents

and artifacts.

$1,000 — Repair of the St. Paul’s entrance door to keep the building secure

$75 — One month of utilities for the Land Office and St. Paul’s

As a completely volunteer-run historical society, the generosity of the community is vital. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference and directly supports the preservation of the rich history of Hicksville.

Help protect and honor the legacy of these treasured landmarks. To donate, please contact the Historical Society at hicksvillehistoricalsociety@gmail.com, mail to PO Box 162, Hicksville, or find information on the website at www.hicksvillehistoricalsociety.com
