$50K Fund Created to Assist NYS History Organizations

April 15, 2020 by Editorial Staff Leave a Comment

Pomeroy FundThe William G. Pomeroy Foundation and the Museum Association of New York (MANY) have partnered to create the Pomeroy Fund for NYS History, to offer grant assistance to history-related organizations in New York State with budgets under $100,000, that have been forced to close in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Pomeroy Fund for NYS History grants will range between $1,000 and $2,000 per organization. A total of $50,000 will be distributed. Applications are being accepted through Monday, April 27 and funds will be disbursed starting May 13.

Awarded funds can be used for the following purposes:

● to purchase computer hardware or software;
● to pay for utilities (e.g. electricity, heat, etc.);
● to gain internet access or expand bandwidth;
● to secure facilities and collections

Grant applications will be reviewed by a panel that will include MANY Board, MANY staff and Pomeroy Foundation staff. Grants are available to all qualified organizations; an organization does not have to be a member of MANY to receive funding, nor will preference be given to MANY members. Funding notifications and assistance grants will be issued in May.
