COVID-19 RELIEF GRANTS

Northern Marianas Humanities Council COVID-19 Relief Grant 

Northern Marianas Humanities Council will award up to $15,000 in grants to support the general operations of CNMI-based humanities and cultural non-profits and $10,000 in fees to humanities scholars, experts, practitioners, and other individual participants in humanities programming. These grants are specifically for individuals and organizations located in the CNMI. Support is intended as emergency relief funding to sustain operational expenses, including fees to individuals, to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Requests for funding will be reviewed internally on a rolling basis and the fund will remain active until all monies have been committed. Applicants should expect a response within 14 business days of application.
Funding for this grant has been provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act economic stabilization plan appropriated by the U.S. Congress.

The COVID-19 Relief Grant Program is currently closed and we are no longer accepting applications for funding. Program details, including the application and guidelines can be found here.
