Overview
Bon Secours of Maryland Foundation Inc, also recognized as BSMF, is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting healthcare and community development initiatives in Baltimore, Maryland. The foundation is closely affiliated with Bon Secours Baltimore and operates under the broader umbrella of Bon Secours Mercy Health.
History
The Bon Secours legacy in Baltimore began in 1881 when the Sisters of Bon Secours arrived from France to establish healthcare services in the United States. Over time, the organization expanded its footprint on the east coast while maintaining a strong presence in West Baltimore. The Bon Secours Baltimore Health System, which includes Bon Secours Community Works, has been pivotal in providing holistic community health programs.
