Ohio History Fund Application Deadline - Oct. 1, 2020!

Hello Grant Seekers and History Fund Friends,

The 2020-2021 application for Ohio History Fund grants is now available at ohiohistory.org/historyfund. The application deadline is Oct. 1, 2020 (by 11:59 p.m.)

The Ohio History Fund is a competitive matching grants program for history projects. The program is supported by the funds Ohioans donate through the "Ohio History Fund" tax check-off on state income tax returns, the purchase of Ohio History "mastodon" license plates and donations to the Ohio History Connection designated to the Ohio History Fund.


These grants support all kinds of history projects including repairs and rehabilitation of National Register-listed historic buildings, museum collection storage initiatives, educational programs, digitization of archival materials and historic photographs, history-architecture and archaeological surveys, exhibit development (including virtual exhibits), oral history and more.

Eligible applicants include local historical societies, historic preservation groups, museums, public libraries, genealogical societies, university archives and special collections, archaeological societies, county records management offices, “friends” groups and other non-profit and public entities.
Ineligible applicants include for-profit businesses, private individuals and the Ohio History Connection. 

The Ohio History Fund application process is entirely online. No paper submissions of grant applications are accepted, although applications can be printed for reference.
