Baltimore Civic Fund Inc
Baltimore, MD · EIN 52-1212473. Reported 439 grants totalling $30.2M to 384 organizations across tax years 2020-2024, on Form 990 Schedule I.
Does this grantmaker accept applications?
Its tax return does not say, and we will not guess. Private foundations file Form 990-PF, which asks outright whether they fund only organizations they select themselves -- 78% say yes, and that one answer is what lets the rest of this site tell you which foundations are worth approaching. Grantmaking charities like this one file a regular Form 990 instead, and the IRS never puts the question to them. Anyone claiming to know the answer from the filing is inventing it.
Three things in the filing do bear on it:
- What kind of organization it is. For Baltimore Civic Fund Inc, the IRS classifies it as a support organization for one specific institution (NTEE T11).
- How spread out its giving is. 384 distinct organizations, with 45% of the dollars going to the largest single recipient. That is concentrated. Most of the money has a settled destination, and the remainder is what is realistically in play.
- How much its list changes. 17% of one year's grantees are funded again the next, across 2 year-to-year transitions. That is below the 56% median for grantmaking charities, and well below the 67% median for private foundations. It describes the organizations it already funds, not whether it would consider a new one.
How big are its grants?
The median reported grant is $18,000. Half of what it reported fell between $9,496 and $25,000; the smallest was $5,148 and the largest $7,241,295. If you are asking for materially more than the top of that range, you are asking the wrong organization.
Every organization it funded
All 384 recipients appear in its filings; the 250 largest are listed here. Years funded is the number of separate tax years in which the organization received a reported grant.

46 of 384 (12%) received money in more than one year over the 5 years we hold. Remember the $5,000 floor: an organization funded every year at $3,000 shows up here as never funded at all.
What kind of organizations it funds
By the activity category the IRS assigns each recipient, for the 154 of 384 recipients we could match to a registered organization. The categories are the IRS's, not ours -- Schedule I reports the recipient's EIN, so this is a lookup rather than a name match.
Giving by year
| Tax year | Grants reported | Total | Median grant |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 | 1 | $6,245,403 | $6,245,403 |
| 2021 | 1 | $7,241,295 | $7,241,295 |
| 2022 | 298 | $8,988,925 | $18,000 |
| 2023 | 93 | $5,845,013 | $7,500 |
| 2024 | 46 | $1,881,590 | $11,250 |
Tax years, not calendar years, and the most recent year is usually incomplete -- Form 990 arrives about a year after the year it covers, so a low final year means late paperwork rather than a grantmaker winding down.
Where its money goes
98% of its giving went to organizations in Maryland. Community foundations and federated funds are usually the most geographically bounded funders there are -- being outside the footprint is normally disqualifying in a way that a weak programme fit is not.
Down to the city
Foundations that fund only organizations they pick gave to this one
15 private foundations that told the IRS they contribute only to organizations they select themselves reported 48 grants totalling $7,018,582 to Baltimore Civic Fund Inc. That is 23% of the 66 funders we can see giving to it. Those 15 foundations do not take unsolicited requests -- their own returns say so. The IRS classifies this organization as a grantmaking organization.
5 of them gave in more than one tax year, which is the only durability signal the filings carry.
What that does not mean. It does not mean an application here reaches that money. A grant from a closed foundation is often a designated gift or a donor-advised fund earmarked by whoever gave it, and has nothing to do with any open programme this organization runs. Neither tax return says which, so neither do we. The list below is who put money in. It is not a route to it.
| Foundation | State | Reported | Grants | Years | Last |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Annie E Casey Foundation Inc | Maryland | $2,566,782 | 23 | 4 | 2024 |
| The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg | Maryland | $1,846,800 | 8 | 4 | 2024 |
| The Rockefeller Foundation | New York | $1,000,000 | 1 | 1 | 2021 |
| Jpmorgan Chase Foundation | New York | $935,000 | 3 | 3 | 2025 |
| The Stephen & Renee Bisciotti Foundation | Maryland | $200,000 | 1 | 1 | 2024 |
| Foundation to Promote Open Society | New York | $170,000 | 2 | 2 | 2022 |
| Vital Projects Fund Inc | New York | $140,000 | 1 | 1 | 2021 |
| Pritzker Family Foundation | Illinois | $50,000 | 1 | 1 | 2022 |
| Sherman Family Foundation | Maryland | $25,000 | 1 | 1 | 2022 |
| The Hackerman Foundation Inc | Maryland | $25,000 | 1 | 1 | 2024 |
The 10 largest by reported dollars, of 15.
A linked name has a page of its own. We publish one for a foundation that takes no unsolicited requests only when a real share of its giving goes to organizations that make grants themselves, and that page opens by saying it does not take requests.
Both the count and the total are floors. A foundation appears here only where its return named this organization clearly enough for us to match the name to an EIN, which we manage for about two thirds of 990-PF grant rows. There are more; we cannot name them.
Get funders for your state and cause by email
We email you funders that gave to organizations in your state and cause, up to five at a time each week and never the same one twice, from their own IRS filings. Free. The weekly email has not started yet.
Unsubscribe in one click from any email. We never sell or share your address. To match on your organization and typical grant size too, keep a private profile.
Funders that support the same organizations
These grantmakers and private foundations gave to organizations this one also funded. Shared grantees are a sign of overlapping priorities and nothing more: they do not show that any of these funders would consider a new organization. Each page says what its filings show.
How to approach this grantmaker
- Look for a published programme first. Unlike most private foundations, organizations of this kind often do run open, deadlined grant cycles with written guidelines. Its own website is the authority on that; this page is the authority on who it has actually paid.
- Check you are its size. The median reported grant is $18,000 -- and because grants under $5,000 need not be reported, it very likely writes smaller cheques than this page can see.
- Check you are in its geography. Its giving concentrates in Maryland.
- Read the recipient list for organizations like yours. If nothing on it resembles your work, that is a real answer and a cheap one to get.
Where these numbers come from
Everything above is taken from Baltimore Civic Fund Inc's own Form 990 Schedule I filings, which the IRS publishes in bulk. We used 5 returns (tax years 2020-2024). Grant figures are from its returns. Recipient classifications, the concentration and retention figures and the funders that support the same organizations are our own calculations from them, described in how we build this.
