Supporting Civic and Nonprofit Initiatives

In addition to these institutions, the Foundation has provided early support for a range of civic initiatives, including:

  • Belair-Edison Neighborhoods Inc. (1993)
  • East Baltimore Development Inc. (2001)
  • Healthy Neighborhoods Inc. (2001)
  • Live Baltimore (2001)
  • Central Baltimore Partnership (2008)
  • Southwest Partnership (2013)
  • No Boundaries Coalition (2015)
  • Greater Baybrook Alliance (2017)
  • Cherry Hill Strong (2021)

Investing in Education and Community Life

Through longstanding partnerships with The Associated: Jewish Federation of Baltimore, Johns Hopkins University, and Morgan State University—each of which receives five percent of the Foundation’s annual grantmaking—the Foundation has supported both the Jewish community and post-secondary education opportunities for Baltimore students. Since 1976, more than $15 million has been awarded in support of initiatives such as the Baltimore Scholars Program at Johns Hopkins University and the Goldseker Fellows Program at Morgan State University, the university’s largest privately sponsored graduate fellowship.

Responding to Civic Challenges

The Foundation has also contributed to coordinated civic initiatives in response to emerging needs. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Foundation participated in the City’s public-private response partnership, working alongside leading health systems and philanthropic institutions. In 2024, the Foundation joined the State of Maryland’s Baltimore Vacants Reinvestment Council to support the implementation of large-scale neighborhood investment strategies.
