About St Luke's Health Foundation
St Luke's Health Foundation Ltd channels most of its giving into St. Luke’s own health system and regional medical centers, with three large grants to St Luke's Regional Medical Center Ltd in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Those awards support overall operational and capital needs, showing a pattern of institution-level backing rather than isolated project grants. The foundation also extended major support to St Luke's Health System Ltd and St Luke's Nampa Medical Center Ltd, reinforcing a portfolio centered on hospital operations, facility needs, and service continuity. Its recent grants also show a narrower set of community-facing priorities tied to care delivery. A grant to St Luke's Health Partners supported patient-centered mental health in pediatric primary care, while smaller awards reached organizations serving children with special needs in Magic Valley and a cancer-focused nonprofit in Sun Valley. The foundation's own summary emphasizes access, prevention, education, research, and community health, and the recent grants reflect those themes through direct support for health system infrastructure and targeted patient services.
What St Luke's Health Foundation Funds
Patient assistance is part of the foundation’s pattern, especially where it connects to access and family support. In Magic Valley, it gave $15,000 to Clear Source Therapy for additional support for children with special needs, and it made the same award to Primary Therapy Source LLC for the same purpose. Behavioral health appears through a grant to St Luke's Health Partners for patient-centered mental health in pediatric primary care. That award links mental health to primary care rather than to a stand-alone program. Cancer support also appears in the recent list. The foundation gave $38,000 in both 2024 and 2025 to Harmon Killebrew-Danny Thompson Memorial Cancer Foundation Inc. The grants also point to service expansion for regional communities, including a $10,000 award to Gemstone Climbing Center LLC for additional support for children with special needs in Magic Valley.
How St Luke's Health Foundation Gives
Typical grant size is sizable: the 25th percentile is $32,250, the median is $464,776, and the 75th percentile is $903,486. The recent record is dominated by repeated support to the same health-system recipients across 2023, 2024, and 2025, which suggests recurring institutional grantmaking rather than one-off awards. The foundation does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. Its active grant programs also accept no unsolicited applications, indicating a controlled, relationship-based funding structure.
