Announcements and New Opportunities

NEH Challenge Grants

Capacity-building grants intended to help institutions and organizations secure long-term improvements in and support for their humanities programs and resources.

Challenge grants may be used to establish or enhance endowments or spend-down funds that generate expendable earnings to support ongoing program activities. Funds may also be used for one-time capital expenditures (such as construction and renovation, purchase of equipment, and acquisitions) that bring long-term benefits to the institution and to the humanities more broadly. There is a matching requirement; recipients must raise three times the amount of federal funds requested.

Application deadline: Friday, May 1, 2013

See the Challenge Grant guidelines for more information.
