NEH is offering Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grants to strengthen humanities organizations’ physical infrastructure through capital projects. Awards of federal matching funds support the purchase, design, construction, restoration, or renovation of buildings or sites of national, historical, architectural, or cultural significance and facilities that house humanities collections or are used for humanities activities. Proposals must enhance the institution’s impact on the humanities over the long term and build on careful strategic planning. 

Capital Projects grants can include costs related to planning as well as the purchase and installation of related moveable and permanently affixed equipment for exhibiting, maintaining, monitoring, and protecting collections, and for critical building systems. 

All NEH dollars must be matched by third-party, nonfederal funds. There are three levels of awards with different match ratios: For requests up to $150,000 the match ratio is 1:1. From $150,001 to $500,000 it is 3:1. From $500,001-$1,000,000 it is 4:1. 

Maximum award amount: $1,000,000 
Application deadline: May 17, 2022 
Expected notification date: December 15, 2022
