Heritage Foundation extends deadline for grant applications

POLAND, Ohio - The Ukrainian Heritage Foundation has extended the deadline for applications for its new program of grants that aims to support the work of non-profit organizations in either the United States or Canada that preserve Ukrainian culture in North America

The maximum amount that will be awarded by the foundation to any organization is $5,000; the amount must be matched on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the organization itself or other documented source of funds.

Grants are to be made in the area of the performing arts (music, theater and dance) and humanities (art museums, historical societies, libraries, historic preservation, media, language and literature, and journalism.)

The Ukrainian Heritage Foundation will favor requests for projects or efforts that would be unlikely to occur without the foundation's support. Requests for general operating expenses, endowments or capital campaigns are unlikely to be considered. Grantees will be notified of their selection and receive the funds in the first quarter of 1999.

Applications for the grants may be requested by sending a letter to: Eugene Woloshyn, President, Ukrainian Heritage Foundation, 2047 Wingate Road, Poland, OH 44514. Completed applications must be postmarked by December 15.
