The BNHA Heritage Investment Grant is a source of funding to provide strategic investments in cultural nonprofits within the Baltimore National Heritage Area that promote, preserve, and enhance its cultural, historic, and natural resources. This grant program, made possible through funds from the US Dept. of the Interior, will award non-capital project grants as well as general operating support grants.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations in good standing with the State of Maryland Department of Assessments and Taxation and with the legal capacity and authority to incur obligations involved under the grant program. Non-capital grants may not exceed $15,000. Operating grants may not exceed $10,000. All grants must be matched 1:1.
New for the 2015 Heritage Investment Grant cycle:
