Our Mission
Building A Future That Works For All Utah Residents
Our Shared Vision
A Utah Where Everyone Can Thrive
Utah is uniquely positioned to build a future that works for everyone.
With a culture that elevates service, family, and civic engagement, our home has a strong foundation for collective progress. Utah Donor Collaborative Foundation believes in a future where every Utahn can live with dignity, participate in civic life, and contribute to our shared prosperity. We work to make that vision real by connecting generous, forward-thinking donors with evidence-based, locally driven initiatives and progressive organizations.
UDCF envisions a Utah that leads by example – where our civic engagement, compassion, and collaboration model what a thriving, inclusive democracy looks like.
Centering What Matters Most
Utah’s future is bright – and it belongs to all of us. To realize that future, UDCF connects your philanthropy with trusted organizations and programs focused on the issues that affect Utahn residents across our great state.
Affordability For All
In the most prosperous state of the wealthiest country in the world, all Utahns should afford basic human needs. Every Utahn deserves to live with dignity – adequate housing, healthcare, childcare, education, and food.
Promoting Safety & Belonging
We dream of a Utah where every person feels a strong sense of belonging, our neighborhoods are full of connection, and everyone feels safe at school, work, or home.
Stewarding Our Environment
Utah’s abundant natural resources position the state to lead the country’s clean energy transformation while advancing sustainable practices that protect our land and water.
Quality Education
Every child in Utah – regardless of zip code or family’s socioeconomic status – deserves access to quality education that prepares them for a bright future. We’re committed to helping build an educational landscape where geography and circumstance never limit access or opportunity.
Democracy & Leadership For All
UDCF supports issue education and voter registration to help create an informed and engaged electorate. We believe in creating a democracy where every voice is heard.

Building On Utah’s Promise
At UDCF, we envision a thriving Utah where generosity fuels opportunity, community participation strengthens democracy, and every Utahn has the agency to shape our shared future.
This vision relies on a healthy, functioning democracy. A democracy where voters choose representatives who listen, understand the needs of their constituents, and work diligently to deliver on the issues that matter most. Where voting is simple and accessible, and where voters’ decisions are recognized and upheld. Where fair maps ensure that the loud majority cannot drown out the stifled yet growing minority.
We realize this vision by elevating:
- service over self-interest
- civic engagement over apathy
- citizen power over overreach
By building a Utah we all know is possible – where power flows from the people, trust is earned, and democracy isn’t just something we hope for, it’s something we practice.
From our red rock deserts to our snow-capped peaks, we’re helping Utahns invest in the places they call home. Your support helps ensure every voice is heard and every community across our great state flourishes.
Utah Thrives When We Work Together
Utah Donor Collaborative Foundation works closely with trusted Utah partners to amplify the reach and effectiveness of our donors.
