Helping People Live the Healthiest Lives Possible. Intermountain Foundation builds relationships and partnerships to inspire philanthropic support for Intermountain Healthcare's hospitals, public education, advocacy programs, and research.
Intermountain Healthcare Foundation Inc’s largest recent grants are hospital support awards to Ihc Health Services Inc, including $81,148,415 in 2023, $44,391,650 in 2024, and $60,143,753 in 2025. That pattern points to a funder centered on the operating needs of Intermountain Healthcare’s hospital system, with additional support for research, education, and community health. The foundation’s stated purpose is to build relationships and partnerships that inspire philanthropic support for Intermountain Healthcare’s hospitals, public education, advocacy programs, and research. Beyond hospital support, the grant record shows work tied to clinical research, pediatric services, and community-facing health programs. University of Utah received multiple research-and-education grants across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including support for pediatric services and pediatric neurosurgery. Ronald Mcdonald House Charities of the Intermountain Area Inc also appears as a recurring recipient for community health support. The mix of very large institutional support and smaller project grants suggests a funder that combines major health-system backing with targeted awards for education, research, and patient-support services.
Hospital operations and support is the clearest funding lane: the foundation gave $60,143,753 in 2025 to Ihc Health Services Inc for hospital support, alongside similar awards in 2024 and 2023. In research and education, University of Utah received $1,130,420 in 2023 for research and education, then another $671,430 in 2024. The foundation also backs pediatric-focused work. University of Utah - Pediatric Services received $1,052,796 in 2025 for research and education, and University of Utah - Pediatric Neurosurgery received $28,740 in 2025 for research and education. Community health support appears in grants to Ronald Mcdonald House Charities of the Intermountain Area Inc, including $53,026 in 2025. Its clinical research footprint includes $50,000 awards to Alabama Children's Hospital Foundation in 2023, 2024, and 2025 for HCRN Clinsite Research, plus a $30,000 grant to Seattle Children's Hospital in 2023 for the same purpose.
Typical grants range from a median of $50,000 to a 75th percentile of $900,925, with a 25th percentile of $38,128. The distribution is pulled upward by very large hospital support awards, while many project grants sit at the $50,000 level or below. The recipient list shows repeated support across multiple years rather than one-off gifts: Ihc Health Services Inc appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and Alabama Children's Hospital Foundation also appears in all three years. Intermountain Healthcare Foundation Inc is a public charity, and the grant data shows a programmatic, project-based pattern tied to service delivery, research, and facility support.
