Grants

Welcome to the MHC Grants page!

Scott Klavan plays Peter Cooper in the new film "Mechanic to Millionaire: The Peter Cooper Story," directed by Janet Gardner seen here aboard the first American steam locomotive, the Tom Thumb.

What we do: Part of MHC's mission is to provide grants to nonprofit organizations that use the humanities (literature, philosophy, history, etc) to engage Marylanders. Grants are awarded with the understanding that participants will be given the opportunity to discuss critical issues affecting their communities.

MHC Grants have two funding levels:
