This year, North Carolina Humanities awarded a total of $8,950 in Project Planning Grants to support preparations for upcoming humanities projects including research activities, planning meetings, data collection, and more. Funding supports community-based initiatives that promote understanding, respect, and an appreciation for diverse cultural expressions.
NC Humanities annually provides Project Planning Grants of up to $2,000 on a rolling basis throughout the year to nonprofit organizations that use the humanities (literature, history, philosophy, etc.) to raise questions, encourage conversation, contextualize experiences, and connect people across differences in their local communities. NC Humanities also offers other humanities project grants of varying funding amounts.
Grant information and applications for 2025 will be announced later this year. To learn more about NC Humanities’ grants, eligibility, and deadlines, visit https://nchumanities.org/grants.
