    CHALLENGE GRANT NEWS
    NEH has launched a Challenge Grants Special Initiative for Local
    History
    (http://www.neh.gov/grants/guidelines/localhistory.html). The goal is
    to
    strengthen small institutions by improving their humanities resources
    in
    local history. Any U.S. nonprofit organization that has not previously
    held
    an NEH Challenge Grant is eligible to apply. Preference will be given
    to
    smaller institutions--those with annual budgets of less than $100,000.
    Awards--ranging from $10,000 to $100,000--will require recipients to
    raise, from nonfederal sources, an amount equal to the federal funds
    offered. For more information, contact the Office of Challenge Grants
    at (202) 606-8309.
