Group of non-profit foundations

The Marcus Foundation is a prominent philanthropic organization established by Bernie Marcus, co-founder of The Home Depot, and his wife, Billi Marcus. The goal of the foundation is to improve the cure rates of childhood brain tumors through direct funding of organized clinical research. The foundation also supports other areas of research related to the brain. In 2025, the foundation gave $30 million to the University of Michigan and Stanford University for work related to stroke patients.

The Marcus Foundation refers to three different foundations: the Marcus Niziak Childhood Brain Tumor Fund, the Grace R. and Alan D. Marcus Foundation, and the Marcus Foundation.
