What is the Role of the MFH Staff?

Projects eligible for funding are assigned to a staff member who then works with the applicant as needed to:

• help conceptualize the overall project within the framework of the humanities;
• provide names of humanities scholars who can help plan and implement the project;
• make connections to other individuals and groups who might be helpful;
• answer detailed questions about budget, procedures, etc.;
• read and respond to drafts of the proposal.
  

We are here to help.

Applicants are required to discuss their ideas with a staff member before submitting a draft proposal. Staff can determine whether the project is eligible for consideration by the Foundation.
