Advantage Archives Offers a $500 Credit to Digitize a Community History Archive
Advantage Archives announced the following:For a Limited Time, Advantage is offering a $500 digitization credit to kickstart your Community History Archive Right now, access to history is under real, growing pressure. Across the country, we’re seeing institutions that have long protected public memory—libraries, museums, archives—being defunded, restructured, or politically targeted. It’s not just about removing books or websites. It’s about controlling the story. More often than not, the stories that get cut first are the ones that document the hard truths about race, inequality, gender, struggle, and resilience. Non-profit organizations that would like to join us in our mission to provide free and open access to local history will receive: - A free Community History Archive—a public digital platform where your local history lives online, accessible to anyone, anytime. No subscriptions. No hosting fees. No ongoing costs.
- A $500 digitization credit—to help you take the first step in making your collections available to the public, at your own pace, with your own priorities.
From the beginning, Advantage Archives was built on the belief that communities should not have to rent access to their own history. That access is not a feature—it’s a foundation. But right now, that belief isn’t just a guiding principle. It’s a responsibility. That is why any nonprofit dedicated to safe guarding public memory and providing access to its historical collections will now receive a Community History Archive at no cost, along with a $500 credit to help them begin the work. Are you interested in kickstarting your archive? Contact us today to get started. Claim The $500 Credit
