The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH)

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is a U.S. government agency that provides funding to support humanities projects, research, education, and preservation of cultural heritage. Its goal is to promote understanding, exploration, and appreciation of history, literature, philosophy, and other human-centered disciplines. By offering grants to institutions, scholars, and organizations, the NEH helps ensure that important cultural and historical knowledge is accessible and preserved for future generations. Its work fosters a richer, more informed understanding of American and global culture and thought.
