Subject: Re: AUC Woodruff Library and Project STAND Digitization Microgrant Application (SCSU)
Dear Mr. Elbert Malone, Ms. Ashley Till, and Mr. Avery Daniels,
Thank you for submitting your project for consideration for an AUC Robert W. Woodruff Library and Project STAND Digitization Microgrant, funded through the generous support of Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. We are excited to share that your project, SC State Student Newspaper Collection, has been selected for an award of $16,000. The review committee was inspired by the project description and clear commitment to ethical documentation of student activism. We look forward to supporting your work.
In the coming weeks, we will follow up with an official award letter, press release, and details about the administrative process. As we are still in the process of notifying recipients, we ask that details about the award not be shared publicly. Do not hesitate to reach out to us with additional questions or concerns. Congratulations, on behalf of the grant selection committee!
Warm Regards,
