Bucks County Historical Society receives $12,000 grant

The funding came from the Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission

The Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission recently approved 31 Historical & Archival Records Care grants totaling nearly $200,000 to help preserve Pennsylvania’s significant historical records and make them accessible.

Bucks County Historical Society received $12,925.

HARC grants fund projects designed to improve the preservation and accessibility of historically significant records maintained by local governments, historical societies and academic institutions.

The grants were based on a competitive review of the applications by a subcommittee of the Pennsylvania State Historical Records Advisory Board. HARC grants are administered by the Pennsylvania State Archives, a bureau within PHMC. Funding for the awards spans two years. Grants $5,001 and above must include matching funds.

SHRAB operates under federal regulations governing the National Historical Publications & Records Commission and serves as the central advisory body for historical records planning in the state.

The Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission is the official history agency of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Click here for more information.
