Hi Jon,
We at OBHS only get space from the Town of Maple in our joint archive
there, built at the start with a small grant from DC.

Subject: Local Government Funding for Historical Organizations
With tighter local government budgets we have seen a reduction in local
government funding the past few years. This has been true for many
local organizations that received City and County funding.
I'm wondering what dollar amount and/or percent of budget other
historical organizations around the state get? In Douglas County we
get just over 20% of our $60,000 a year operating budget from City and
County combined.
If anyway could share with me what percent or dollar amount of their
funding comes from City/Village/Town or County, I would be appreciative.
