HARRISBURG, June 16 – State Rep. Nate Davidson, D-Cumberland/Dauphin, today announced that the Historical Society of Dauphin County was awarded a $10,000 Semiquin Grant from America250PA.
With generous support from Gov. Josh Shapiro and the Pennsylvania legislature, America250PA’s Semiquin Grants are set to engage Pennsylvanians across the commonwealth as the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence approaches. The grants support educational, civic, and celebratory events and programs that showcase Pennsylvania’s rich history, and continuous contributions to the nation.
Grant recipients include 44 communities and organizations across 35 different counties, each playing a role in bringing this milestone to life. Together, their efforts will not only commemorate the celebration in 2026 but also lay a solid groundwork for the next 250 years of unity across Pennsylvania.
“America, Pennsylvania, and Dauphin County all share a rich and long history,” Davidson said. “Next year, the commonwealth will be welcoming millions of visitors as we come together to celebrate the 250th birthday of this great country. With the help of this grant, historians will tell the captivating history of Dauphin County, preserving and sharing the knowledge of our history for future generations.”
