About the company
World Monuments Fund, Inc., a New York-based nonprofit organization specializing in international cultural heritage conservation and restoration, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants from the Department of State, with no federal contracts and no subcontracting activity across its federal footprint.
World Monuments Fund's federal grant portfolio concentrates almost exclusively within the Department of State's cultural preservation programs. The organization holds 72 prime grants spanning five regional State bureaus, with the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs accounting for 22 awards, the Bureau of African Affairs 16 awards, the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs 11 awards, the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs 10 awards, and the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs 5 awards — together representing 89% of award volume. The combined obligated dollars across the grant portfolio total $28.3 million, though the combined potential value reported is $640 thousand, a discrepancy reflecting the mature state of the portfolio (most grants have moved from obligation to execution and closure). Recent representative work includes a $250,000 U.S. Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation (CFDA 19.025) grant from the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs (awarded September 1, 2026) supporting heritage foremen training for the National Authority for Preah Vihear and a separate $250,000 AFCP Freedom 250 Special Edition grant (also dated September 1, 2026) for the Phnom Bakheng Temple Conservation Project in Cambodia; a $375,000 AFCP award (April 27, 2026) from the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs funding stabilization and reconstruction of Antioch's Greek Orthodox Church and Synagogue in Turkey; a $248,000 Educational and Cultural Exchange Programs grant (CFDA 19.022, May 1, 2026) from the Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs for conservation of the Golden Stupa and Temple Complex at Erdene Zuu Monastery in Mongolia; and a $250,000 AFCP grant (April 24, 2026) from the Bureau of African Affairs supporting restoration of a National Memorial Wing in Tanzania.
Activity has remained steady across the past five years—five awards in 2021, six in 2022, three in 2023, four in 2024, and five in 2026—with eight grants scheduled for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. World Monuments Fund operates exclusively as a direct grant recipient with no pass-through sub-recipient structure within the State Department funding ecosystem, meaning no subcontracting partners in the federal space. Place of performance spans internationally (more than 130 countries) with administrative oversight at the New York headquarters, though the source notes one domestic address (Lewisville, Texas) associated with at least one award administrative function.
