The Preserve Campaign

Preserving History, Serving Community

September 17, 2026 through October 15, 2026

Please join Restoration Housing and Presenting Sponsor Pinnacle Financial Partners for the 2026 Preserve Campaign – Preserving History, Serving Community! As we celebrate the completion of Trinity Commons, help us shine a light on one of our community’s most urgent challenges – senior housing insecurity. Because every senior deserves the opportunity to age with dignity. The campaign consists of a ticketed luncheon as well as virtual content available through online platforms.

This is Restoration Housing’s main fundraiser of the year, providing necessary financial support and exposure to fulfill our mission!  Your support is what makes our work possible by funding the pre-development planning, construction management, and long-term stewardship of our historic properties as well as the care and oversight of our tenants. 

Lend your support to the Preserve Campaign and be a part of the solution.  All gifts, no matter size, will help us grow our capacity to serve!

Preserve Luncheon

September 17, 2026 / 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. / City Market Building's Charter Hall

Our Preserve Luncheon returns Thursday, September 17 with an engaging presentation by Dr. Fred Karnas, PhD, as we explore what it means to grow old without a place to call home. His compassion and deep understanding of our community’s most vulnerable populations have led him to national leadership roles addressing the intersection of housing, health, and human services. This expertise has led multiple administrations to call on him for senior advisory roles with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Office of HIV/AIDS Housing, and the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness. We are excited for him to share his vision for creating lasting change.
