About the company
Dennison Railroad Depot Museum Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Dennison, Ohio, receives federal grant funding as a recipient (67% of recent awards) to support museum operations, collections management, and public programming aligned with its mission as a National Historic Landmark preserving WWII homefront history. The organization does not hold federal contracts or act as a subcontractor on federal procurements; its federal footprint consists entirely of grants from cultural and humanities agencies.
The museum's customer base is narrow and specialized. Two distinct grantor agencies account for all tracked awards: the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), with one recent subaward from an unspecified entity (award date July 17, 2025) related to Ohio Appalachian regional tourism and economic development.
Recent grant work includes a $385,911 project grant from IMLS under the Museums for America program (CFDA 45.301), effective October 1, 2025, with completion targeted for September 30, 2028. The award funds a three-year initiative to upgrade collections management software, acquire digital equipment for digitization of approximately 30,000 artifacts, and hire cataloging and data entry staff to expand in-person and online access to the museum's historical collections. A prior $536 thousand combined obligation across earlier awards included a January 2022 project grant from NEH to retain five core staff members (Executive Director, Acting Curator and Registrar, Special Projects Coordinator, Marketing and Social Media Coordinator, and Manager of Frontline Experience) to resume daily operations, preservation, conservation, and educational programming after pandemic-driven closures and revenue loss that forced staffing reductions and shortened operating hours.
Activity is sparse but recent. The source shows one award in 2022 and two in 2025, with one award (combined potential value not specified in subaward detail) reaching completion inside the next twenty-four months.
