Apply for a Grant - France-Merrick Foundation The France-Merrick Foundation concentrates its grant-making within the State of Maryland and primarily within the greater Baltimore area. Applicants must be a non-profit organization holding 501(c)(3) status under the Internal Revenue Code.

In addition, applicants are expected to demonstrate adequate administrative capacity, financial stability and program effectiveness, including the ability to describe evaluation criteria, methods and expected outcomes in their requests.
For our 2025-2026 grantmaking, we’ve launched the Meet the Moment Fund — a one-year grantmaking strategy that responds to impacts of recent public policy changes on Baltimore residents, neighborhoods, and nonprofits — in addition to our traditional grantmaking. Learn more .
