Loras College announced that it has been awarded a grant for $120,800 through the American Rescue Plan Act, a financial rescue measure passed by Congress in March. Funded through the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the grant will support both the College library and the Loras College Center for Dubuque History (CDH).
The American Rescue Plan Act appropriated supplemental funding to NEH to provide emergency relief to institutions and organizations working in the humanities that have been adversely affected by the coronavirus pandemic. NEH is awarding grants to museums, libraries and archives, historic sites, independent research institutions, academic presses, professional organizations, colleges and universities, and other humanities organizations across the country to help these entities continue to advance their mission during the interruption of their operations due to the coronavirus pandemic.
