NEH Grant Opportunity

National Endowment for the Humanities Grant

Congratulations to the board of the Mont Vernon Library Charitable Foundation for successfully submitting a NEH Grant Application that could yield as much as $655K of federal grant funding for the library project! Multiple contributors worked hundreds of hours over the past 5 months to gather information to complete this very competitive federal grant. The application required a tremendous amount of project information. The board included 13 letters of support, 8 resumes from project leaders, 15 attachments that included the library design, project budget, fundraising plan, an 8 page narrative, strategic plans and of course pictures. The 26 page "how to apply” package did not deter this group but instead inspired them. Grants will be awarded in April 2022. Fingers crossed for this potential award. Job well done MVLCF!

Adult and Children’s Programs

Our vibrant library is clearly too small to serve our community. Full programs, limited space.
