Overview
In 1954, George W. Merck established the Merck Family Fund with the dual aim of doing good with the resources acquired through the company's success and to assure the family had a regular opportunity to come together. Since 1955, the Merck Family Fund has awarded 1,574 grants totaling over $37 million to 500+ organizations. The Merck Family Fund’s mission is to restore and protect the natural environment, ensure a healthy planet for generations to come, and strengthen the social fabric and the physical landscape of the urban community. Currently, the Fund's programmatic areas include: land conservation in the Southeast, sustainable paper production, reduction in carbon emissions through carbon pricing policies and energy efficiency, and urban farming and youth leadership.
