A nonprofit that spent years fundraising trying to save Johns Hopkins’ childhood home was shut down by the state last fall, according to files obtained by Baltimore Sun Media. Documentation from Maryland’s secretary of state alleges that the Johns Hopkins House Inc. misled donors by soliciting contributions under the pretense that the nonprofit was financially stable when it faced thousands of dollars of debt and a foreclosure lawsuit.
