Rapid Response Grants

About this program

Vermont Humanities provides Rapid Response Grants, offering up to $1,000 for humanities-focused community projects. These grants aim to support small-scale initiatives and 'pop-up' opportunities, with a quick turnaround and monthly award decisions.

Eligible applicants must propose projects that can be executed within three months, with a focus on the humanities and their impact on the community. The grant proposal review committee assesses applications based on several criteria, including alignment with Vermont Humanities' mission and the project's potential to engage and benefit the intended audience.
