Geography

Restrictive

Observed giving is strongly concentrated in Utah, with roughly 90% of grant dollars going to in-state recipients despite grants appearing in about 14 states.

Recipient Variety

Broad

The latest year shows a large and diverse recipient set—266 distinct recipients—and multi-year data shows both substantial returning support (183 repeat recipients) and many new entrants (83 in 2024).

New Applicants

Broad

There is a clear public application process (online portal and published instructions), a named program officer to contact, and the foundation funded a sizable share of new grantees (about 31% new recipients in 2024), indicating unfamiliar applicants can gain entry.
