Please note, the Council offices will be closed from December 22nd – January 1st for winter break. I will be away from my desk starting on December 20th and returning on January 3rd.

 

The president’s budget proposes the elimination of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Act now to protect funding for your North Carolina Humanities Council.

 

Although the NEH is a mere 0.02% of federal spending, the agency is charged with preserving our nation’s heritage and expanding access to America’s diverse cultural and historic treasures. The loss of NEH funding would jeopardize the Council’s more than 40 years of work preserving and sharing the stories that bring NC's rich culture and heritage to life.  Act today to preserve NEH funding for NC

To our council partners,

 

We are delighted to share the attached photo with you of the moment last Thursday when the MoMS team received the Smithsonian Education Innovation Award from Secretary Skorton. In our remarks we said that our success in impacting students and communities is only possible through our partnership with state humanities councils.

 

We are deeply grateful for the work you all do on behalf of MoMS in small towns across the country. This award is an affirmation that the work we are doing together is making a difference.

 

And, we can now refer to MoMS as an award-wining project!

 

With warm regards and grateful hearts,

 

The MoMS team at SITES
