The Historical and Genealogical Society of Indiana County received an $8000 grant from the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission.
The grant is part of the Cultural and Historical Support Grant Program. The goal of the program is to provide operating support to museums and official county historical societies that are not supported by other state agency funding sources.
In a statement, State Representative Jim Struzzi said that the society has done an excellent job in preserving the county’s history thanks to the volunteers that help there, and that the grant money will help continue their mission. Senator Joe Pittman said that the organization helps the future generations by teaching and preserving the past and that he looks forward to seeing how the $8000 will be used to help pass Indiana County’s history to future generations.
