<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Hi Marsha,</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Quite an interesting situation! Others may have more direct experience with something like this, but my inclination is to think that it wouldn’t be permissible to apply for
a federal grant from somewhere like the National Archives or NEH on behalf of an organization outside the U.S. That’s probably strictly prohibited. But the Mellon Foundation may have more flexibility around a situation like this, though I’m not sure what the
precedent is for their giving money to international projects (one would think they’ve probably done that before…?). They also have fairly prescriptive areas of focus for grants, so depending on the nature of this collection there’s a chance it’d be outside
their scope.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Since the archive is located in France, my thoughts are that any funding would have to come from a private foundation rather than a federal grant. In addition to Mellon, I
think the <a href="https://leonlevy.org/" originalsrc="https://leonlevy.org/">Leon Levy Foundation</a> may be another option worth looking into? Also the
<a href="https://www.delmas.org/" originalsrc="https://www.delmas.org/">Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation</a>? And I of course have very little knowledge of the EU granting landscape…</span></p>
