Every week, AHA Today showcases a new grant, fellowship, or scholarship of interest to historians which has been posted to our free Calendar. This week we are featuring the American Battlefield Protection Program’s 2016 Battlefield Preservation Planning Grants.

The American Battlefield Protection Program (ABPP) of the National Park Service invites non-profit groups, academic institutions, and local, regional, state and tribal governments to submit applications for the 2016 Battlefield Preservation Planning Grants. The purpose of this grant program is to provide seed money for projects that lead directly to the identification, preservation and interpretation of battlefield land and/or historic sites associated with battlefields. In recent years grants have averaged about $40,000 per award.

Applications must be received either electronically through grants.gov or by mail by 4:00 p.m. EST, January 14, 2016. Visit grants.gov or our website for details and application.
