The National Endowment for the Humanities awarded West Virginia Humanities Council Inc. $718,615 on June 1, 2026, under the Promotion of the Humanities Federal/State Partnership program (CFDA 45.129).

The period of performance runs through April 30, 2031, with all work performed in West Virginia. The Federal/State Partnership program funds 56 state and jurisdictional humanities councils to advance knowledge and understanding of the humanities and increase public awareness of and support for the humanities across the United States.
