Barney & Barney Foundation Grants - Legacy Grant

Overview

Barney & Barney Foundation Grants

Mission Statement

The Barney & Barney Foundation is committed to giving back – serving those in need, supporting our youth, advancing the arts, standing against societal injustice, and protecting the environment.

Grant Selection

The Barney & Barney Foundation provides grants to non-profit organizations that assist those in need, support our youth, advance the arts, or protect the environment. Each year, qualified non-profit organizations are nominated by our colleagues. The nominations are reviewed by the Barney & Barney Foundation Grant Committee, after which potential recipients are invited to apply formally.

The Grant Committee uses a variety of criteria to select a recipient, including whether the mission of the non-profit supports our mission, the financial status of the non-profit, and the non-profit’s need. Grant amounts vary year after year, depending on funds raised and the need of the potential recipient.

Legacy Grant

The Legacy Grant serves as a tribute to Marsh McLennan Agency’s founding company’s long-standing core value of giving back to the community.

The Legacy Grant was introduced to continue honoring the memory of our founding organization. It is a wonderful commemoration of both our past and current success, as well as our commitment to the value of community support and engagement.

This annual grant in the amount of $25,000 honors a retired Barney & Barney / MMA Principal who then selects a nonprofit to allocate the grant to. Former Principal Larry Shea nominated Pro Kids, First Tee for the inaugural event.

We look forward to continuing this tradition and honoring our legacy as well as future grant recipients.

Grants will be awarded on an annual basis, typically in the summer and fall of each year.
