Welcome to the

John C. Merchant Foundation


The John C. Merchant Foundation, established in 2004, is dedicated to honoring the life and memory of our father, grandfather, son, husband, brother and friend. John died of brain cancer in June 2003 and his "live life to the fullest" personality shall be preserved through this organization!

Our mission, through the help of family, friends and corporate sponsors, is to provide resources for the purpose of brain cancer initiatives. Funds raised each year will be distributed to the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center (for brain cancer research) through the Dr. Marnie Rose Foundation or any other cause the foundation deems appropriate.
