The Holt County Historical Society has applied for  Neighborhood Assistance Funding. The program is provided through the Missouri Department of Economic Development and offers tax credits to businesses who donate to a not-for-profit organization. Arnie Kreek, an Economic Development Planner with the Northwest Missouri Regional Council of Governments, prepared the application. This would provide funding for the repair and restoration of the Society's historic properties. Letters of support were written by State Representative Mike Thomson, Congressman Sam Graves, Holt County Presiding Commissioner Mark Sitherwood, and the Holt County Commission, and Fortescue Mayor Charlie Triggs.
