    About George S and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation

    The George S. and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation makes very large, concentrated gifts focused on institutional philanthropy in Utah. In 2022 it combined a major unrestricted/undesignated distribution of contributions with a targeted endowment gift to support medical school excellence at the University of Utah (Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine). This pattern suggests the foundation balances flexible community-wide grants with sustained investments in higher-education health sciences at its local flagship university.

    About George S and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation

    A defining feature of the George S and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation is its willingness to make very large, highly targeted gifts to Utah institutions, especially higher education, health sciences, arts, and community infrastructure. In the latest grants listed, the foundation supported the University of Utah Health Sciences School of Medicine with a $5,575,000 endowment grant for medical school excellence, then followed with another $500,000 for the same endowment. That same pattern of major institutional support appears across other Utah anchors: Southern Utah University received $1,000,000 for a new music center, and the Utah Zoological Society at Hogle Zoo received $1,000,000 tied to the rebuilt train experience in the new Wild Utah exhibit area. The foundation also backs a wide mix of local civic and cultural organizations, from ballet and symphony groups to homelessness response, youth programs, conservation, and campus athletics. Across the recent grants list, the emphasis is consistently on large commitments with specific purposes, often tied to capital projects, endowments, or season sponsorships rather than small unrestricted awards.

    What George S and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation Funds

    Medical education is a clear throughline. The foundation gave $5,575,000 to the University of Utah Health Sciences School of Medicine for the George S. and Dolores Dore Eccles Endowment for Medical School Excellence, followed by a $500,000 gift for the same endowment. It also backed higher education beyond medicine: the University of Utah David Eccles School of Business received $1,218,750 to establish the Marriner S. Eccles Institute for Economics and Quantitative Analysis, and Westminster University received $200,000 for the George S. and Dolores Dore Eccles Scholarships. On the youth side, Utah's Promise got $500,000 for the 100% Promise program serving low-income youth and families in the Granite School District. The foundation also funds community services and public-facing institutions, including $350,000 to The Road Home for resource center and crisis response programs and $500,000 to the Nature Conservancy in Utah as a lead gift for the Utah Futures Campaign.

    How George S and Dolores Dore Eccles Foundation Gives

    The recent grants show a high-ticket giving pattern: p25 is $917,280, median grant size is $1,814,728, and p75 is $15,983,663. The foundation’s grants are concentrated in Utah, with all recorded recipient-country grants in the United States and 100% of grants to recipients in Utah. The list includes both one-time and recurring support: Utah Symphony Utah Opera appears more than once, including a $500,000 season sponsorship grant and a separate $488,490 matching challenge grant. The foundation also combines operating support, endowment funding, matching challenges, and capital-campaign gifts. It funds individuals, and it does not make program-related investments.
