FY 2024 National Maritime Heritage Grant Program - Education Grants: The National Maritime Heritage Grants Program provides funding for education and preservation projects designed to preserve historic maritime resources and to increase public awareness and appreciation for the maritime heritage of the United States. This grant program is funded through the proceeds of the sale or scrapping of obsolete vessels of the National Defense Reserve Fleet. Grants are administered in partnership with the U.S. Department of Transportation, Maritime Administration (MarAd).This grant program is authorized by the National Maritime Heritage Act, 54 USC 308701-380707. All grants must be matched on a 1:1 basis with non-federal funds. The total funding available for grants will be divided equally between preservation projects and education projects. Consequently, this is the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for EDUCATION grants. There is a separate NOFO for preservation grants. Please ensure your application is submitted under the appropriate NOFO.Education projects foster awareness of and appreciation for historic maritime resources for new educational exhibits, activities to encourage traditional maritime skills, special skills (for example - rigging, sail training), interpretation of artifacts in collections, maritime heritage programs focusing on maritime heritage trails and corridors, and the construction and use of reproduction of historic maritime resources. All funded projects must meet the relevant Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation.
