Ideal Applicant
A Utah‑based nonprofit (especially serving people with disabilities, health, youth or scholarships) with a local track record and the ability to submit a brief mailed application by the stated deadline.
Good Fit
- • Organization is located in Utah or provides primary services in Utah.
- • Programs serving people with disabilities, pediatric health, youth services, or local homeless/food programs.
- • Able to accommodate typical local grant sizes (small to mid grants, many under $25K).
- • Willingness to submit required name/address/phone/email/purpose/amount and meet a July 31 deadline.
- • Has local credibility or an existing relationship or reference to current grantees.
Geography
Observed giving across all three years is entirely within Utah; each year shows grants to organizations in a single state.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 16–17 distinct recipients in each year, indicating a broad set of independent local grantees despite some dollar concentration among top recipients.
New Applicants
The filing lists application instructions, a mailed contact address and a July 31 deadline, which creates a public entry route, but most grantees are repeat recipients (16 returning grantees) and only one new recipient appeared in the latest year.
