These projects have included the disciplines of archaeology, archives, libraries, media, museums, middle and secondary schools, higher education, preservation, publications and scholarly research.
The Summerlee Foundation does not change its priorities from year to year but instead looks to those working in Texas History to articulate the needs of the field. There are, however, a few points that they might suggest.
The Summerlee Foundation is always on the look out for projects devoted to underserved cultural and geographic areas of the state.
It receive a great many proposals for restoration and renovation of historic properties, and while National Register Status and/or designation by the Texas Historical Commission are not a requirement for submitting a proposal, that status will make your proposal more compelling.
Projects that can tout the participation of well qualified individuals either as active participants or consultants help to make a proposal stronger.
Projects that demonstrate strong community support through funding, in-kind support, and volunteer participation also make a stronger proposal.
