The Allen Wyoming Foundation concentrates unusually large gifts both to leading national medical centers and to hometown/community causes in Cody, WY. Their giving mixes multi-year, repeat support for flagship health institutions with sizeable, recurring investments in local civic, historical and animal-welfare organizations. This blend suggests a dual priority of advancing medical/health initiatives while sustaining the grantee’s local community and cultural institutions.
Relatively concentrated, high-dollar grants with repeat multi-grant relationships: large gifts to a few national health institutions alongside significant recurring support for a small set of local nonprofits.
Allen Wyoming Foundation Inc’s recent giving is marked by a pattern of large unrestricted grants to major medical institutions alongside repeated support for Cody, Wyoming, community organizations. In 2025, the foundation gave $750,000 each to Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic, while also sending $700,000 to The Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation. Those gifts sit beside a second track of hometown funding in Cody, where the foundation has backed community, cultural, and health institutions with sizable awards over multiple years. The mix shows a funder that combines national-scale health philanthropy with place-based support in its local community. The foundation’s recent grants also show recurring relationships rather than isolated gifts. Cody Change Attitudes Now Inc. received $594,544 in 2024 and $589,000 in 2025. Buffalo Bill Memorial Association was funded at $500,000 in 2025, $100,000 in 2024, and $86,250 in 2023. The same pattern appears in health and animal welfare, with repeated support for major hospitals and shelter organizations. Across these awards, unrestricted language appears consistently, indicating flexible support rather than tightly designated project funding.
Medical and clinical philanthropy is a major thread in the foundation’s grantmaking. It gave $750,000 to Mayo Clinic in 2025 and $500,000 in 2024, both unrestricted, and also granted $750,000 to Cleveland Clinic in 2025 after prior unrestricted gifts of $500,000 in 2024 and 2023. Animal welfare is another visible area. The Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation received $700,000 in 2025 and $295,000 in 2023, each unrestricted. Longmont Humane Society was also supported, with $200,000 in 2025 and $150,000 in 2024. The foundation continues to fund local civic and cultural work in Cody. Cody Change Attitudes Now Inc. received $594,544 in 2024 and $589,000 in 2025, while Buffalo Bill Center of the West and Buffalo Bill Memorial Association also appear among the recent awards.
Typical grant size is substantial: the 25th percentile is $15,000, the median is $60,000, and the 75th percentile is $250,000. Recent awards show a wide spread above that middle band, including multiple six-figure and seven-figure grants. The foundation behaves like a recurring funder rather than a one-time giver: Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Cody Change Attitudes Now Inc., Buffalo Bill Memorial Association, and Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation each appear across multiple years. It is classified as a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The grants listed are overwhelmingly unrestricted.
