GRANT DEADLINES: JANUARY 15 and SEPTEMBER 15

Applicants interested in applying for a grant should first review the grants information on this website or in the grant guidelines booklet. The next step is to contact IHC staff rick@idahohumanities.org to discuss their project ideas.

IHC strongly advises all applicants to submit proposal rough drafts to staff approximately one month ahead of the final deadline, so that staff can review the draft, anticipate Council member questions, and make recommendations for improving the final submission.  Applicants are urged to contact staff well before the draft deadline to discuss their proposal ideas.  Often, staff can supply a similar proposal that has been successful in the past for the applicant to use as a model.
