Our nation’s 56 state and jurisdictional humanities councils are nonpartisan 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations established in 1971 by Congress to make outstanding public humanities programming accessible to everyday Americans. Private donations allow humanities councils to expand programming, offer additional grants, and reach even more people in their state or territory with the power of the humanities.
Contact information for each humanities council can be found here. If you would like to make a larger gift to benefit all councils, please contact the Federation of State Humanities Councils at connect[at]statehumanities.org.org.
