Nonprofit organizations across Oregon may now apply for Public Program Grants between $1,000 and $5,000 from Oregon Humanities (formerly Oregon Council for the Humanities). Grant guidelines are available for download (oregonhumanities.org) or by request from Development and Program Coordinator Annie Dubinsky at (503) 241-0543, ext. 116.

Letters of inquiry must be postmarked by October 31, 2009. Full proposals, if invited, will be due by December 15, 2009. Public Program Grants are awarded once a year through a competitive process, and grant decisions are made by the OCH statewide volunteer board of directors.

Oregon Humanities funds programs that offer opportunities for civic engagement and humanities learning, respond to timely issues and ideas in communities across Oregon, and inform and broaden the context for public conversation. Special consideration will be given to projects that explore globalism, media and consumer culture, and place and community.
