In June of 2021, our organization was awarded a $10,000 grant, known as the SHARP General Operating Support Grant, by Humanities MT and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Operating support grants are rare, but so critical! Check out what sorts of things our SHARP Grant helped to fund & support here!
