Oklahoma Humanities offers funding opportunities for projects that serve K-12 educators in Oklahoma public schools. These grants provide outright funding of up to $10,000 to support initiatives that enhance humanities-based educational materials and experiences for full- and part-time teachers. However, both the Quick Grant (up to $1,500) and the Major Grant (up to $10,000) are currently temporarily unavailable.
The purpose of this funding category is to increase capacity in public schools by providing K-12 educators with access to humanities resources. Eligible projects may include teacher institutes or workshops, the development and distribution of curriculum guides, and other educational initiatives that serve educators.
Eligibility for this funding opportunity is limited to U.S. nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, accredited public and nonprofit higher education institutions, state and local government agencies, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. All applicants must demonstrate that their projects will directly support K-12 educators in Oklahoma.
To apply, interested organizations must create an account on the Oklahoma Humanities online grants portal. Specific funding guidelines and requirements are detailed throughout the application process. Additional resources such as a sample budget, budget narrative, and grant grading rubric are available to assist applicants.
For further information, applicants can contact Oklahoma Humanities at their office in Oklahoma City. The organization’s contact details include a phone number (405-235-0280) and a fax number (405-235-0289). More information and application resources are available through the Oklahoma Humanities website.
