Every US state and territory has a "Humanities Council"--here are their addresses and email addresses. They are independent, non-profit organizations funded through the National Endowment for the Humanities. They promote humanities through a variety of programs and small grants--for example, encouraging the study of local and community history. Although Congress has recently been cutting back money for the national NEH, it has supported the state councils. Write your state council for more information.
