Good day all, 

 

Funding Opportunity Title: NEH CARES: Cultural Organizations

 

Taken from the Purpose Statement: 

 

  Through this funding opportunity, NEH will award grants to museums, libraries and archives, historic sites, independent research institutions, professional organizations, colleges and universities, and other cultural organizations across the country to help these entities continue to advance their mission during the interruption of their operations due to the coronavirus pandemic.  

 

  Funds are available to support a range of activities over a six and a half-month period of performance. 

 

Some examples:

 

• a university requests support to assist adjunct or contingent faculty members and staff converting to online teaching   

 

• an archive requests support for staff who would have been furloughed to prepare or initiate their disaster plans, online archives, and/or procedures for re-opening after forced closure 

• a tribal community requests support to continue a program creating, preserving, and making available oral history interviews  

 

• a historic site that is temporarily closed hires staff to provide exhibition maintenance, and to sanitize spaces so that, when social distancing ends, the site is ready to welcome visitors safely
