The Wisconsin Historical Society, along with the Wisconsin Council for Local History, is pleased to announce that it has awarded over $15,000 to 25 of its affiliated local historical societies through the 2013 mini-grant program.
The Glenwood Area Historical Society has received a mini-grant to support the purchase of PastPerfect collections management software.
This year’s affiliate mini-grant program focused on projects and activities that strengthen a local organization’s ability to preserve historical collections and manage those collections and resources. The projects that are supported in part by the mini-grant program are an important part of the work done by local organizations to help collect and preserve our state’s history at the community level.
The Wisconsin Historical Society’s Field Services Program provide support and educational opportunities to local history groups throughout the state. The Wisconsin Historical Society also partners with the Wisconsin Council for Local History, a non-profit organizations consisting of all historical organizations affiliated with the State Society that promotes communication and cooperation among local history groups.
