NJ Council for the Humanities

 
 

Programs and events supported by NJCH are open to the public.

DONATE

If you value an empowered statewide community that is connected through the public humanities, then please consider contributing to the Council. We exist for the greater good. As a nonprofit partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities, we rely on federal and corporate funding as well as individual contributions to strengthen our society by harnessing the power of the humanities.


OUR IMPACT

How does NJCH impact the state?
  • Hundreds of thousands of citizens attend programs and events that widen their perspectives and increase their awareness of history, values, culture, and beliefs (for themselves and others)
  • Organizations that strengthen our cultural infrastructure and promote learning are supported and encouraged and ensure humanities experiences
  • Civic discourse is accessible and fostered, creating a more informed and engaged population

INNOVATION FUND

The Innovation Fund is a special initiative that exists to support the conception, planning, implementation, and evaluation of NJCH humanities programs.

It focuses on ensuring seed funds for NJCH humanities offerings, especially at early stages of programming development. The creation of the Innovation Fund represents NJCH’s commitment to excellent public humanities and expanding in response to the needs of diverse audiences.  NJCH works with the Princeton Area Community Foundation to manage this fund.

Interested in learning more about the Innovation Fund?  Contact Anamika Kapoor for more information.

ENDOWMENT FUNDS

Ensuring the continued vitality of the humanities is central to our mission. The Endowment Funds exist to provide ongoing operating funds through investment income, supporting NJCH right now and for years to come.

Funds invested with the Princeton Area Community Foundation and the Community Foundation of New Jersey, NJCH’s Endowment Funds place top-level investment expertise in the service of the humanities, subsidizing annual operations and building long-term organizational stability.
