Library Renovation Contributions

About this Campaign

Holmes Community College was named as one of the 2020 grant recipients selected by National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grant on behalf of the McMorrough Library and Archives.  The Development Foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) organization, has a five-year plan to match the NEH grant with $231,849, totaling $463,698 over the life of the grant. These funds will provide the necessary means for renovating the interior spaces of the 1975 structure and secure the practicality of activities set forth by the humanities departments.
