The Natick Historical Society (NHS) had been awarded a Staffing Recovery Grant from Mass Humanities. The 2023 Staffing Recovery Grants deliver funding to non-profit organizations to sustain and expand current staff hours or hire new staff to create, restore, and grow humanities programs across the state. Awards range between $16,000 and $40,000 and benefit organizations with budgets of $500,000 or less and five or fewer full-time equivalent employees.
The grant awarded to the Natick Historical Society will expand staff time and create a new part-time Community Engagement Coordinator position for two years. “We’re very excited about the award,” says Executive Director Niki Lefebvre. “The support will make it possible for us to better connect with our community and bring forward stories about Natick’s past—and present.” To read more about the Mass Humanities grant awards, please click here.
