How to Make a Request

  1. Contact the faciltator directly and arrange a date, time, location, discussion topic, and materials to be used for your program. Programs are 60-75 minutes long.
  2. Programs may be in-person or virtual depending on the Facilitator.
  3. Create a free online account or login to your account here.
  4. Submit the online Facilitator Request Form at least four weeks before your program date.
  5. Your application may be rejected if you’ve requested the same program twice in a six month time frame.
  6. Your application will be rejected if you have any outstanding paperwork or payments due to Delaware Humanities.

After Your Request & Before Your Event

  1. Wait for approval and the Grant Agreement from Delaware Humanities before advertising.  Delaware Humanities pays the Facilitator’s fee; your fee covers the administrative costs.  Funding is limited and not all requests are approved.
  2. Read the Grant Agreement carefully and digitally sign prior to the program with co-payment ($75 for federally registered nonprofits, $150 for other organizations. Check your nonprofit status, if you are unsure.).  Failure to comply with the grant agreement will result in denial of future requests.
  3. Whether virtual or in-person, it is the responsibility of the host organization to communicate with the Facilitator to learn their technological needs for the program. Delaware Humanities will not provide any technological resources or assistance.
  4. Promote your program! With some exceptions, these events must be free and open to the public.
  5. Distribute audience evaluations at the program.  Provide the link to audience members to the digital evaluation for virtual programs.

After Your Event

  1. Return audience evaluations within one week to the Delaware Humanities office.
  2. Log in to your account and complete your Program Coordinator evaluation online.
