Project Grant PW29058223

The University of Puerto Rico at Cayey was awarded a $282,854 Project Grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities under the Promotion of the Humanities Division of Preservation and Access program (CFDA 45.149).

The grant will support the "Collective Care" partnership project between the University of Puerto Rico at Cayey, the National Museum of American History, and five Puerto Rican communities and community organizations. Through this project, the awardees will create a digital repository documenting community responses to multiple natural and human-made disasters in Puerto Rico from June 2023 to May 2026. The repository aims to preserve primary resources and provide intellectual access to materials held by the collaborators, consistent with the goals of the federal grant program.
