Emergency Grants - Website and Application Available May 1

The pandemic is hitting the economy hard, including historic sites and museums in Ohio. The Ohio History Connection is developing an temporary emergency grant program for 501(c)(3) history organizations to help.

The Ohio History Fund COVID-19 Emergency Grants program and the application will be available at www.ohiohistory.org/covidgrant<http://www.ohiohistory.org/covidgrant> after May 1 (we're building the website). This grant is in addition to our COVID-19 Hardship Relief Fund<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fohiohistory.us14.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3D37ce5c8c24208a588c681edc5%26id%3Dae89be52c5%26e%3Dbaef517f22&data=02%7C01%7Ccarleton%40ohio.edu%7Cb72b9503d6ab4cd34aff08d7e1410785%7Cf3308007477c4a70888934611817c55a%7C0%7C0%7C637225541729587302&sdata=lA7CgE8yNLU9soGVrD1h12wKZR8CYuTxS%2FbGPcm7OMY%3D&reserved=0> that supports our site partners.

Applications for COVID-19 Emergency grants will be due June 1 and grant awards made will be made mid-July and funds must be expended by Nov. 30, 2020.

Here’s a preview of what this grant will offer: Ohio History Fund COVID-19 Emergency Grants will range from $500-$3,000 and be based on the applicant’s budget size. Unlike regular History Fund grants, COVID-19 Emergency Grants are intended to supplement operational costs, such as payroll and utilities. Applicants can also use grants to adapt programs for on-line audiences, such as K-12. There is no match required. Grant funds are limited. See the application when released, for details.
