The Joseph and Harvey Meyerhoff Family Charitable Funds have been making grants for more than five decades. Several of the funds available in the last 25 years were created at the death of family members. These funds have now terminated.

Beginning in 2009, we will have fewer funds available for grant making. Currently, we are evaluating our procedures for future grants.

We will not be accepting any new Letters of Inquiry or Grant Applications until further notice.
