Past Grants

Live Baltimore Home Center

For support of Live Baltimore’s House Auction Project. Intended to promote the Station North neighborhood, the project calls for the conversion of a vacant house into a showcase home, and marketing it before putting it up for auction. The goal is to encourage redevelopment and investment.

Friends of Patterson Park

Two grants: for support of Sundays With the Kids, a series of children’s performances and interactive art-oriented activities during the summer months; and, for continued support of initiatives designed to help revitalize Patterson Park. Friends of Patterson Park advocates for capital improvements, and develops programs for year-round activity. The initiatives are expected to increase the desirability of the surrounding neighborhoods, improve safety in the park, and create a sense of community stewardship.
