About University of Idaho Foundation
The University of Idaho Foundation directs virtually all of its philanthropic dollars to its namesake institution, funding scholarships, student programs, faculty support, research, and general program support. Its giving is institutionally focused and designed to strengthen the university’s academic mission, student success, and research capacity rather than funding external nonprofits or diverse community initiatives.
