In December 2013, Hmong Cultural Center was awarded a 3 year grant from the Henry Luce Foundation of New York to support activities of the Hmong Resource Center Library, including expansion and maintenance of the physical research collection, for cataloguing, and for enhancement of various online initiatives. A Minnesota Department of Education Library Services and Technology Act [LS-00-15-0024-15] grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services is currently supporting an expansion of our collections. A grant from the Moneygram Foundation is supporting the addition of a Moneygram Children's Corner in 2016.
From 2008-2010, the Hmong Resource Center Library was supported by grants from the Saint Paul Foundation, and the F.R. Bigelow Foundation. A 2012 grant from the Saint Paul Foundation Asian Pacific Endowment has supported the upgrading of the library's catalog system. |
