To better support public humanities work across Vermont, we have exponentially grown the amount of money we distribute to Vermont non-profits and other organizations through our grants programs. We do not use federal funding for our Project, Rapid Response, or Partnership Grants.
In 2025, we funded 53 Project Grants projects totaling $229,160. We also funded 34 Rapid Response Grants totaling $26,765.
We encourage 501(c)(3) public charities, government entities, schools, and/or institutions of higher education to apply for a Vermont Humanities grant.
Other groups may apply through a non-profit organization that agrees to act as a fiscal agent and to accept responsibility for meeting the terms of the grant award.
