The NEH supports a wide array of humanities activities. In 2013, the state humanities councils received approximately a third of the endowment’s program funds (see page 8 for each council’s per capita revenues). Activities in areas of public programs (bringing the humanities to diverse audiences via television, film, traveling exhibitions, and other means); preservation and access activities (including the production of reference materials and resources, the digitization of historically significant newspapers, and the documentation of endangered languages); education; and research each received similar amounts of funding—from 12 to 15% of the endowment’s program funds.
