The foundation is overwhelmingly focused on supporting clinical and community health services through a major investment in an academic medical center, alongside smaller, local grants that strengthen regional hospitals and health workforce training. Most funding flows to a single large institutional partner for community healthcare programs, with additional targeted support for community college healthcare education and local hospital foundations in the Fort Collins–Larimer County/Cheyenne region.
Poudre Valley Medical Group LLC’s recent giving is anchored by a sustained commitment to the University of Colorado School of Medicine, including a $4,988,065 grant in 2025, a $3,037,672 grant in 2024, and a $2,608,328 grant in 2023 for community healthcare. That three-year pattern makes the academic medical center the clearest center of gravity in its grantmaking. The foundation also uses smaller awards to support local health and social service infrastructure, including United Way of Larimer County in Fort Collins. Beyond that, its funding reaches regional hospital and workforce partners tied to clinical care and training. The grant record points to direct support for programs that connect academic medicine to community health delivery, rather than broad, multi-sector philanthropy. With leadership from Dr David Williams and a regional scope, the foundation’s giving ties together university-based healthcare programs, local community support, and regional providers serving patients in Colorado and Wyoming.
In community healthcare delivery, Poudre Valley Medical Group LLC gave $4,988,065 to the University of Colorado School of Medicine in 2025, continuing a multi-year relationship focused on community healthcare. The foundation also made a $14,877 grant to United Way of Larimer County for community healthcare, linking its giving to local service delivery in Fort Collins. Healthcare education appears as a separate line of support: Front Range Community College received $11,505 in 2024 and $5,952 in 2025 for healthcare education, after an $11,081 grant in 2023 tied to community healthcare. Regional hospital support is visible in Wyoming, where Cheyenne Regional Medical Center Foundation received $10,401 in 2024 for community support and $5,773 in 2025 for community healthcare, while Ivinson Memorial Hospital Foundation received $6,309 in 2025 for community healthcare.
The typical grant size is small at the middle of the distribution, with p25 at $7,332 and a median of $11,293, while p75 jumps to $1,959,965 because of a very large institutional award. The pattern is mixed: one major recurring partner receives multi-year support, while a set of much smaller grants goes to regional hospitals, a community college, and a local United Way. The foundation is a corporate entity rather than a family foundation, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The recent record is entirely grant-based and shows repeated support across 2023, 2024, and 2025.

Highly concentrated: one very large multi-grant commitment to a single academic medical center (~99% of dollars), supplemented by small, repeat local grants to community colleges, hospital foundations, and the county United Way. Mix of major institutional investment plus modest, targeted community-level support.
Notable grantees: University of Colorado School of Medicine, Front Range Community College, United Way of Larimer County, Cheyenne Regional Medical Center Foundation, Ivinson Memorial Hospital Foundation
Grantmaking is regional and stays in the United States. Colorado receives the bulk of awards, including recipients in Aurora, Fort Collins, and Westminster; 70% of grants go to recipients in the HQ state of Colorado. Wyoming is the main out-of-state target by grant count, with grants to Cheyenne and Laramie. The recent list shows no non-U.S. recipients.
The recent grants point to academic medical education, local community health, and regional hospital support. Named recipients include the University of Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora, United Way of Larimer County in Fort Collins, Front Range Community College in Westminster, and hospital foundations in Cheyenne and Laramie.
Grant size is bimodal. The median grant is $11,293, with p25 at $7,332, but p75 rises to $1,959,965 because of a large award to the University of Colorado School of Medicine. That means many grants are relatively small, alongside one much larger recurring institutional grant.
Yes. The University of Colorado School of Medicine appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, with grants of $2,608,328, $3,037,672, and $4,988,065. Front Range Community College also appears across 2023, 2024, and 2025, showing a repeated relationship rather than one-time support.
The foundation’s grants are regional and entirely U.S.-based in the recent record. Colorado recipients include Aurora, Fort Collins, and Westminster, while Wyoming recipients include Cheyenne and Laramie. Colorado accounts for 70% of grants by recipient state, and Wyoming is the top state by grant count outside the HQ state.
