About Honorhealth Foundation
Honorhealth Foundation’s recent giving is dominated by very large program-support grants to HonorHealth itself, including $32,967,222 in 2023, $23,475,642 in 2024, and $16,294,441 in 2025. That pattern points to a funder built to strengthen the mission of HonorHealth through philanthropy rather than through scattered outside awards. The foundation is a public charity with annual grants of $76,736,387 and total assets of $360,623,120, and it gives locally, with every recent grant going to recipients in Arizona. Its recent grant list also shows support for Desert Mission Inc, another HonorHealth-affiliated recipient, with awards of $1,824,390 in 2023 and $1,294,392 in 2025. In addition, Honorhealth Ambulatory received a $218,377 grant in 2025. The stated focus areas include cancer care, neuroscience, neonatal intensive care, cardiovascular and heart care, clinical research through the HonorHealth Research Institute, community services through Desert Mission and the food bank, nursing education and workforce development, and patient assistance programs. The grantmaking profile is restricted to program activities and project-specific funding.
What Honorhealth Foundation Funds
Honorhealth Foundation’s stated focus areas center on care delivery and support services within the HonorHealth system. Cancer care is one of the listed priorities, alongside neuroscience and cardiovascular or heart care, indicating support for major clinical service lines. Neonatal intensive care is also named as a focus area, showing attention to specialized hospital care. The foundation also supports clinical research through the HonorHealth Research Institute, which places research alongside direct patient care in its funding profile. Community services are another theme: the existing summary names Desert Mission and the food bank as part of its focus, linking philanthropy to local service delivery. Nursing education and workforce development appear in the focus list as well, along with patient assistance programs, suggesting that the foundation funds both institutional capacity and direct help for patients through program support.
How Honorhealth Foundation Gives
Honorhealth Foundation’s grant sizes are large even at the lower end: the 25th percentile is $1,533,773, the median is $12,650,016, and the 75th percentile is $25,848,537. That distribution matches a grantmaker using substantial program support rather than small awards. The recent record also shows repeat support for the same recipients across multiple years, especially HonorHealth and Desert Mission Inc, which points to recurring institutional funding instead of one-time project grants. The foundation is a public charity and a regular funder, and the listed philosophy tags indicate program support, project-specific funding, and restrictions to program activities.
