About the company
Schenectady County Historical Society, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit historical society based in Scotia, New York, is a federal grant recipient that performs archival preservation, digitization, and public programming work for the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The organization operates exclusively as a prime recipient — it holds no federal contracts, sits on no federal contract vehicles, and performs no subcontract work. All four of its federal awards in the source data are project grants.
The organization's federal footprint centers on humanities and cultural preservation. The National Endowment for the Humanities has funded two recent project grants: a $163,433 award made November 1, 2026, under the Promotion of the Humanities Division of Preservation and Access program (CFDA 45.149) to rehouse, arrange, describe, digitize, transcribe, and translate materials in six archival collections documenting Schenectady County during the American Revolution and early national period, with work extending through December 31, 2027; and a project grant for "Schenectady Celebrates 250," a year-long commemoration of America's 250th birthday completed December 31, 2026, featuring exhibitions, symposiums, and public programs exploring Revolutionary history and the power of place in Schenectady. The Institute of Museum and Library Services awarded a project grant (completion date August 31, 2025) to survey historical records created by individuals and organizations in Schenectady County's African American community, develop a searchable online catalog, and conduct public programs on preservation and family history.
Activity has been sparse and episodic: one award in 2009, one in 2022, and two in 2026. Combined obligated dollars across all four awards total $364 thousand. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will face recompete. The organization serves three federal customer agencies, with the National Endowment for the Humanities accounting for 50% of recent award count.
