In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment granting women the right to vote in New Hampshire and the United States, New Hampshire Humanities is seeking proposals for new Humanities to Go programs and Community Project Grant proposals related to the women’s suffrage movement and the expansion of voting rights.
THANK YOU!
We are grateful for the many donors who supported New Hampshire Humanities during NH Gives! We exceeded our goals and raised a total of $5,250 (includes a $2,000 match gift from an anonymous donor). Thank you all! P.S. If you missed the chance to give during NH Gives, we're happy to have your support through a gift to our Annual Fund.
