Barr Foundation
The Barr Foundation envisions a vibrant, just, and sustainable world with hopeful futures for children. The Foundation's mission is to support gifted leaders and networked organizations working in Boston and beyond to enhance educational and economic opportunities, to achieve environmental sustainability, and to create rich cultural experiences - all with particular attention to children and families living in poverty.
Merck Family Fund
The Merck Family Fund was established in 1954 by George W. Merck, President of Merck & Co. He created the fund for two principal reasons: to do good with the resources acquired through the company's success, and to create an opportunity to regularly bring family members together.

The Energy Foundation is a partnership of major donors interested in solving the world's energy problems. Our mission is to advance energy efficiency and renewable energy - new technologies that are essential components of a clean energy future.
The John Merck Fund
Founded in 1970, the John Merck Fund, a New York charitable trust, supports efforts to implement a regional carbon cap and trade system, encourage New England states to establish strong economy-wide caps on carbon emissions, and promote energy efficiency and renewable energy policies at the state and regional levels.
