Colbeck Capital Management (“Colbeck”) today announced its support of the World Monuments Fund (“WMF”), the leading non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of cultural heritage around the world, including monuments, buildings, and archaeological sites that are of great historical, artistic, and cultural significance. Founded in 1965, the WMF operates globally with projects on every continent devoted to safeguarding the world’s most treasured places and building mutual understanding across cultures and communities.
The WMF seeks to identify and prioritize sites that are at risk from reasons such as neglect, deterioration, climate change, armed conflict, or other threats. Once a site is identified as endangered, the organization collaborates with local communities, governments, and other partners to implement conservation and restoration projects, leveraging support from sponsors like Colbeck that share an enthusiasm for protecting cultural heritage. The WMF also engages in advocacy, education, and capacity-building efforts to raise awareness about the importance of preserving cultural heritage and to build local and international support for conservation initiatives.
Support from Colbeck and other donors helps advance the WMF’s mission through a range of activities, such as technical and scientific research, hands-on conservation, and restoration efforts, which ensure that future generations can appreciate and learn from the rich cultural heritage these sites represent.
