WSGS Innovative Grants Available
The Washington State Genealogical Society has created an exciting opportunity for local societies: the WSGS Innovative Grant Program. The grants, up to $100, are designed to support the inventive and creative efforts of WSGS-member societies and organizations. Up to five grants will be awarded in 2018.
We don't want to limit your creativity, so here are just a couple of innovative projects that might be considered. Other examples are included in the Guidance Document.
- Help with promotional printing expenses for a large event to launch a newly organized society.
- Purchase of new equipment to digitize unusual documents, therely saving them from further deterioration.
- Purchase of DNA kits for local member instructors to use as a public show and tell program, hoping to increase society membership.
This program is currently on hold due to a vacancy of the Recognition & Grants chair. If you have questions direct them to info@wasgs.com.
