Eligibility Criteria
Organizations may apply for a grant if:

- You are in “good standing” with the Council, i.e., you do not have an overdue grant report or a previously defaulted grant.

satisfactorily closed your open grant.
Individuals may apply for a mini grant if:
- You are planning to do research in the humanities. If you are not doing research, you must find the appropriate fiscal sponsorship of your project and apply for a public project grant.
- You have formulated a solid plan for how you intend to make your research findings public (e.g., lecture, panel discussion, website, radio/ television broadcast, podcast, published essay, or book). They encourage you to secure letters of interest from hosting venues or partners.
- Your research is not part of a degree-related pursuit or faculty research project.
- You do not currently have an open grant with the Council. If you are a current grantee, they encourage you to reapply after you have
satisfactorily closed your open grant
