The Goldseker Foundation, following the legacy of Morris Goldseker, focuses on serving the Baltimore community by investing in its institutions and people. With an original bequest from Goldseker's estate in 1975, the Foundation prioritizes areas of community development, education, and nonprofit organizational development. Continuing to honor Goldseker's wishes, the Foundation collaborates with the city's civic leadership, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs to make impactful grants, while also exploring program-related investment opportunities.
Management Assistance Grants from the Goldseker Foundation are designed to support nonprofit organizations by funding the consulting expertise they need for various strategic initiatives. These can include strategic planning, program evaluation, merger exploration, and enhancing fund development and sustainability efforts. These grants aim to empower nonprofits to more effectively achieve their missions and strengthen their impact within the Baltimore metropolitan area. Interested organizations are required to contact the Foundation's program officer prior to applying to discuss their initiative's eligibility.
Applicants are urged to show how proposed activities will be maintained beyond the Foundation’s support, as it typically does not serve as a persistent funding source.
