Humanities Council Grants Enrich the Live of North Dakotans

Since January of 2004, the North Dakota Humanities Council has awarded more than $220,000 in regrant funds to help bring humanities-based programs to North Dakotans. As an independent, nonprofit affiliate of the National Endowment of the Humanities, the council is mandated to promote lifelong learning through programs that offer inspiration and education to a public audience. Grants from $300 to $20,000 and more are given to sponsoring nonprofit organizations and institutions for projects to develop and implement public humanities programs.

For those with existing grants, please note our publicity policy.
