YHRB, in cooperation with the Government of Yukon, reviews and determines the eligibility of applications to the Yukon Historic Resources Fund on an annual basis. The board evaluates eligible applications and recommends projects for funding. This year, $17,850 was made available for these projects through interest generated by the fund and supplemental support from the Government of Yukon's Department of Tourism and Culture.
