Today, Bayer Fund prides itself on being an innovative philanthropic leader, providing millions of dollars annually in two primary priority areas.

Food & Nutrition – Food security and reliable access to healthy, nutritious food are ongoing problems in our nation.  From supplying food directly, to providing education and resources that help improve nutrition, reduce obesity and support families, Bayer Fund grantees are working to combat hunger and malnutrition.

Health & Wellness – Education. Prevention. Assistance. These are three key tenets of Bayer Fund’s investments in health and wellness.  We support services and programs for those dealing with cancer and cardiovascular disease.

Bayer Fund’s primary focus is to achieve maximum impact by assisting families in under-resourced communities. We have invested millions in these communities, including grants totaling more than $12.1 million in 2023 alone.

We primarily concentrate our efforts in rural communities and the geographies where the majority of our employees live and work: St. Louis, MO, Northern New Jersey, Pittsburgh, PA, and Berkeley, CA.

Bayer Fund is governed by a team of dedicated employees who are passionate about improving the quality of life for those in need in our communities.
