Berlin Area Historical Society gets $2,000 from the City of Berlin, nothing
from the County.
We depend on membership and donations to sustain our 4 buildings.

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.
