Funding made possible by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Mass Humanities announces new grants for organizations across Massachusetts as they continue to recover from the impacts of the coronavirus. Through funding provided to the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) by the American Rescue Plan, the “Sustaining the Humanities through the American Rescue Plan (SHARP)” grants will provide up to $20,000 in support for eligible non-profit organizations and tribal entities.

Applications open July 6, 2022, with a final deadline of August 4. Mass Humanities expects to make awards by mid-September.

Since the outset of the COVID-19 crisis, humanities organizations have provided a source of solace, connection, information, and reflection. As our society recovers from and reckons with the pandemic’s impact, particularly the systemic inequalities and racial disparities it laid bare, Mass Humanities is honored to provide this new opportunity.

A grant workshop will be hold Wednesday, July 14, 11am-12pm.
