About Promontory Foundation
The Promontory Foundation’s defining recent pattern is a $40,000 Promontory Promise Grant to Peace House in 2025 to expand children’s services, which sits alongside repeated support for Park City-area nonprofits working on urgent community needs. The foundation’s giving is local and practical: recent awards reach community health clinics, housing support, early childhood care, domestic violence services, arts groups, and youth-serving organizations across Park City and Summit County. That mix shows a funder centered on direct service rather than policy or research.
Its recipient list includes multiple grants to The People's Health Clinic, Christian Center of Park City, Park City Tots, Kimball Arts Center, Mountain Town Music, and Youth Sports Alliance, suggesting ongoing relationships with organizations that serve residents in place. The foundation also supports general community infrastructure and family supports, with grants to Habitat for Humanity, Live Like Sam Foundation, National Ability Center, Summit County Clubhouse, and Park City Medical Center. Across the portfolio, the common thread is support for organizations delivering immediate benefits to local people in the Wasatch Back.
What Promontory Foundation Funds
Local health access is a visible priority. The foundation gave $55,000 in 2024 to People’s Health Clinic and another $30,000 in 2025 to The People’s Health Clinic, both in Park City. Housing and homeownership also appear in the record through a $50,000 grant in 2025 to Habitat for Humanity in Park City.
Family and child services are another recurring theme. Park City Tots received $50,000 in 2025 and $20,000 in 2024, while Peace House received $45,000 in 2024 and $15,000 in 2025, including the 2025 Promontory Promise Grant for children’s services. Arts and community life are present as well: Kimball Arts Center received $30,000 in 2024 and $25,000 in 2025, and Mountain Town Music received $25,000 in 2025 after a $15,000 grant in 2024.
How Promontory Foundation Gives
Typical grants fall in a $5,000 to $20,000 band, with a median of $10,000, a 25th percentile of $5,000, and a 75th percentile of $20,000. The recent record also includes larger, targeted awards such as $40,000 and $55,000. The pattern is repeat giving: several recipients appear in multiple years, including The People’s Health Clinic, Christian Center of Park City, Peace House, Park City Tots, Kimball Arts Center, Mountain Town Music, National Ability Center, and Youth Sports Alliance. The foundation uses charitable contributions and matching-dollar programs, and one active program accepts unsolicited applications.
