SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. (June 18, 2024) – The Sundt Foundation announces the distribution of $12,000 in grants to three nonprofits in its Intermountain region.

“Our employee-owners chose to support three key organizations this quarter that are providing essential services in our community,” said Jasen Bennie, the Sundt Foundation’s Salt Lake City regional board member. “The selected nonprofits improve the lives of disadvantaged youth and adults by creating opportunities for increased mental wellness and financial success.”

Good Deed Revolution, Fathers and Families Coalition of Utah and Live Your Dream received $4,000 each to support their missions.

Good Deed Revolution focuses on suicide prevention and promotes mental wellness for disadvantaged children. With the grant, the organization will expand outreach and continue to offer comprehensive mental health programs.

The Fathers and Families Coalition of Utah helps low-income, at-risk youth by providing empowering programs, intervention and skills training that better prepares them for independence and adulthood.

Live Your Dream supports single mothers in Utah pursuing higher education. The grant will help the organization support more mothers, increasing their financial stability and quality of life.
