This National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) grant is for the purpose of supporting innovative small projects focused on the teaching and study of humanities within higher education. Specifically designed to benefit underserved populations, the program targets small and medium-sized colleges and universities, including two- and four-year institutions, non-profit organizations, and tribal, state, or local governments. The initiative strongly encourages applications from community colleges, minority-serving institutions, rural colleges, and institutions with a high percentage of Pell Grant recipients. It also prioritizes those not previously funded by the NEH Division of Education Programs since 2018. The grant aims to strengthen humanities education and outreach in institutions where resources may be limited.
