WESTSIDE COMMUNITY GRANTS

In 2024, the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation launched the Westside Community Grant Initiative, a place-based approach to philanthropy that provides funding to strengthen nonprofit organizations serving Salt Lake City’ s westside neighborhoods. In the first year of this initiative, the Miller Family Foundation provided 38 grants to support community based solutions across health, education, economic mobility and cultural enrichment, ensuring this vital part of Utah’ s capital city continues to thrive.

NEIGHBORWORKS

Neighborworks provides opportunities for individuals and families facing educational and socioeconomic barriers to build sustainable careers. A $ 50,000 grant from the Miller Family Foundation supported their YouthWorks and CareerWorks programs which equip participants with the skills, confidence and access to mentorship enabling them to thrive professionally and personally.

CLUB ABILITY

Club Ability is expanding access to STEM education for underserved students across Utah. Through its Westside Tech Creators program, the organization bridges the digital divide by providing high-quality instruction in digital literacy, programming, 3D design, and more. With support from the Miller Family Foundation, Club Ability expanded the program to additional schools on the Westside.
