Catholic Foundation of Utah
Our Mission
The Catholic Foundation of Utah was established to strengthen the Catholic Church in Utah and serve both its present and future needs, through the promotion of permanent, endowed funds.
Who We Are
Founded in 1984, the Catholic Foundation of Utah is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation, dedicated to providing financial support for the Catholic Church in Utah.
What We Do
The Catholic Foundation assists donors in creating a meaningful and lasting impact through planned giving and charitable family named endowments. Additionally, the Foundation works closely with the charitable entities designated as beneficiaries.
