The John Merck Fund Table of Contents Welcome. We have created this website to mark the closing of our charitable foundation the John Merck Fund JMF and to celebrate the remarkable changemakers weve had the honor to support during a halfcentury of grantmaking. Our founder Serena Merck established JMF in 1970 to improve the care of those wholike John Merck the second of her three childrenlived with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Grantmaking with that goal in mind animated JMF throughout its history.
