Tom: Currently, we're focusing on restoring the old church in the town square. It's been deteriorating over the years.

Tom: Funding is a major challenge. Restoration work requires a lot of resources, and it's not always easy to secure funding.


Sarah: I can imagine. Have you faced any other obstacles?


Tom: Yes, sometimes there's opposition from developers who want to repurpose historical buildings for modern use.


Sarah: That must be frustrating. How do you deal with that?


Tom: We try to raise awareness about the cultural significance of these sites and the importance of preserving them for future generations.


Sarah: That's commendable. Is there any way I can help with your efforts?


Tom: Absolutely! We're always looking for volunteers to assist with restoration work and to help raise awareness in the community.


Sarah: Count me in! I'd love to contribute to preserving our heritage.


Tom: That's wonderful to hear. Together, we can make a difference in safeguarding our cultural heritage for the future.
