Armenian Museum of America receives grant
WOBURN
The Armenian Museum of America has been selected as one of 100 local
nonprofits to receive grants of $100,000 each through Cummings
Foundation's $100K for 100 program. The Watertown-based organization
was chosen from more than 430 applicants during a very competitive
review process.
The Armenian Museum is a living museum and library that offers
exhibits and diverse cultural and literary programs to its members and
the community at large. It is where Armenian-Americans can discover
their roots and where people of all ethnic backgrounds can see how the
story of the Armenian people plays a vital part within America's
cultural symphony.
The $100K for 100 program supports nonprofits that are not only based
in but also primarily serve Middlesex, Essex, and Suffolk counties.
This year, the program awarded 38 grants in Middlesex County, 25 in
Essex County, and 37 in Suffolk County.
This year's very diverse group of grant recipients represents a wide
variety of causes, including underserved populations, education,
healthcare, hunger relief, and homelessness prevention. Most of the
grants will be paid over two to five years.
The complete list of 100 grant winners is available at CummingsFoundation.org.
