Sample Grant Products

FHC-funded projects frequently produce lasting products that can be used by individuals and organizations for a considerable time beyond the grant period.  Maps, booklets, and brochures can be ordered from the organization that produced them. Exhibits may be barrowed or rented – often using a FHC Mini Grant to fund the shipping of the exhibit and a related public program to open it. Websites are used by teachers in the classroom, researchers, and folks just interested in Florida culture and heritage.  Some of the products of FHC-funded grants are listed below.
