SHARE THIS ARTICLE

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, 2021, 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.

Mass Humanities anuncia nuevas subvenciones para organizaciones de todo el Estado de Massachusetts mientras siguen recuperándose de los impactos del coronavirus. A través de fondos otorgados por el Plan de Rescate Estadounidense al Fondo Nacional para las Humanidades (NEH), las subvenciones para “Sostener las Humanidades a través del Plan de Rescate Estadounidense (SHARP)” ofrecerán hasta $20,000 para apoyar organizaciones sin fines de lucro y entidades tribales elegibles.

Las postulaciones abren el 6 de julio de 2021, con un plazo límite fijado para el 4 de agosto. Mass Humanities prevé otorgar subvenciones para mediados de septiembre.
