The Timo and Judy Jones Family Foundation makes small, targeted grants focused primarily on faith-based support and international youth and maternal/child relief. Their giving is concentrated and selective: a single large partner for youth development receives repeated support, while the family also directs sizable contributions to their church and to charitable health/relief work in Haiti. Overall the foundation favors direct charitable contributions over many small, varied projects.
Concentrated giving: few grants per year with one repeat, major beneficiary (two grants totaling the largest share), sizable single donations rather than many small grants; mix of religious domestic giving and targeted international humanitarian partners.
A $40,000 charitable contribution to Building Youth Around the World stands out as the foundation’s largest recent grant and captures its pattern of direct, targeted support. Timo and Judy Jones Family Foundation gives to a small set of organizations rather than a broad roster, with repeated support for youth development, church-related giving, and charitable health and relief work. The recent grant record shows a family foundation that uses straightforward contributions, including an unrestricted-style charitable contribution to a youth organization in Murray and another sizable contribution to the Church of Jesus Christ of LDS in Salt Lake City. Its other recent gifts extend the same selective approach to maternal and child relief in Haiti and to community support in Utah. The foundation’s grantmaking is concentrated enough that a few organizations account for much of the recent activity, and the awards vary from smaller six-figure-scale amounts in the low thousands to a larger $40,000 grant. Across the available record, the foundation appears to favor direct charitable support for established nonprofit partners and faith-linked or humanitarian causes.
International youth development is a clear priority. In 2024, the foundation gave $40,000 to Building Youth Around the World for a charitable contribution, after another $10,000 gift to the same organization in 2023. The foundation also supports religious work through a $31,000 charitable contribution to the Church of Jesus Christ of LDS in Salt Lake City in 2024. Humanitarian health and relief is another theme: in 2025 it gave $10,000 to MamaBaby Haiti for charitable contribution. Community assistance in Utah also appears in the record, including gifts to Capsa in Logan in 2024 and 2025.
The recent grant sizes center around a median of $20,500, with a lower quartile of $8,750 and an upper quartile of $33,250. That spread reflects a small number of targeted awards rather than a long tail of many tiny grants. The foundation is a family foundation, gives no grants to individuals, and does not make program-related investments. The record also shows repeat support for the same recipients across multiple years, especially one youth-development partner and one Utah community organization, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-off awards.
