The Todd Family Foundation concentrates its giving on a small number of large, unrestricted operating grants, with a clear local tilt toward higher education in Provo/Utah Valley and flexible philanthropic vehicles. A large share of funding flows to Utah Valley University and to donor-advised/fiscal-sponsorship channels, indicating a mix of direct institutional support and routed philanthropy rather than many small program-specific gifts. The foundation appears to prefer repeat, substantial commitments to a few trusted recipients.
Highly concentrated giving: few (6) grants totaling ~$619K, repeated sizable gifts to the same recipients (repeat support for UVU and Schwab Charitable), favoring large unrestricted/operating grants over many small awards.
A defining feature of the Todd Family Foundation’s recent grantmaking is its reliance on large, unrestricted gifts that move through a small set of trusted recipients. The biggest recent award in the record is a $147,000 operating grant to Schwab Charitable in 2025, followed by a $118,205 donor advised fund gift to the same recipient in 2023. That pattern suggests a foundation that uses flexible vehicles alongside direct institutional support rather than spreading funds across many narrowly targeted awards. Direct giving also centers on higher education and a few established nonprofits. Utah Valley University appears repeatedly in the recent grants list, with operating support in 2023, 2024, and 2025, including $100,000 awards in consecutive years and a $50,000 grant in 2025. The foundation also made a $104,000 operating grant to Philanthropies in Provo in 2024. Across these grants, the Todd Family Foundation’s profile is one of concentrated, sizable philanthropy with an emphasis on operating support and repeat relationships.
Higher education is one of the clearest themes in the Todd Family Foundation’s recent grantmaking. Utah Valley University received $100,000 in 2023 and $100,000 in 2024 for operating support, followed by $50,000 in 2025. Flexible charitable vehicles are another recurring channel. In 2025, the foundation gave $147,000 to Schwab Charitable as an operating grant, and in 2023 it made a $118,205 donor advised fund grant to the same organization. The foundation also supported a Provo-based philanthropy organization with a $104,000 operating grant in 2024. Taken together, the recent record shows a mix of direct institutional support and gifts routed through charitable intermediaries.
The Todd Family Foundation gives in relatively large increments, with a typical grant size of p25 $100,000, median $102,000, and p75 $114,654.

Recipient repetition is visible: Utah Valley University appears across three consecutive years, and Schwab Charitable appears in two years. The foundation is a private foundation with no program-related investments and no individual grants in the provided data.
