    About St Lukes Hospital of Kansas City

    St Lukes Hospital of Kansas City’s recent giving is dominated by very large support for health care needs, with the largest grant going to Saint Lukes Physician Group for $132,699,773 in 2024. That pattern points to a funder closely tied to health service delivery rather than a broad, competitive grantmaker. The next-largest award in the recent list, $115,633,261 in 2023 to the same recipient, shows that this is not an isolated transaction but part of a repeated funding relationship. Health care is the clearest throughline across the recent grants, and the recipient list also includes Heart Surgeons of Kansas City and Medical Plaza Imaging Associates LLC, both in Kansas City. Alongside those large medical grants, the foundation makes smaller community support awards to local institutions such as the City of Kansas City Missouri and Rockhurst University. Its stated commitment to whole-person, patient-centered care and collaboration with community partners aligns with a portfolio that mixes clinical support and community-facing funding.

    What St Lukes Hospital of Kansas City Funds

    The strongest theme in the recent grants is health care delivery. In 2024, St Lukes Hospital of Kansas City gave $10,541,197 to Heart Surgeons of Kansas City for support for health care needs, following a $11,423,386 award in 2023 to the same recipient. That same clinical focus appears in a $2,100,000 grant in 2023 to Medical Plaza Imaging Associates LLC for support for health care needs. Community health also shows up through smaller awards outside the core medical provider network. The City of Kansas City Missouri received grants for community support in both 2023 and 2024, and Rockhurst University was funded in both years for the same purpose. A separate community-support grant went to March of Dimes in Overland Park, Kansas.

    How St Lukes Hospital of Kansas City Gives

    Grant sizes vary widely, from a p25 of $42,600 to a median of $1,079,490 and a p75 of $11,202,839. The recent list suggests a mix of extremely large institutional support and smaller community awards, with repeated recipients appearing across multiple years. The foundation does not make grants to individuals and does not make program-related investments. Its giving is local in scope, and the pattern is heavily concentrated in Missouri, especially Kansas City-area recipients.
