What Envision Utah does
Mission
Envision Utah is a nonpartisan public-private partnership that engages people to create and sustain communities that are beautiful, prosperous, healthy, and neighborly for current and future residents.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Envision Utah was created as a public-private partnership in 1997 to guide the development of a broadly based and publicly supported quality growth strategy. That strategy led to cleaner air, expanded public transportation, reduced water consumption, and reduced land consumption. In 2013, Envision Utah launched the Your Utah, Your Future initiative to establish and implement a vision for maintaining a high quality of life and a strong economy as Utah almost doubles in population in the coming decades. Your Utah, Your Future includes eleven focus areas: agriculture, air quality, disaster resilience, education, energy, housing and cost of living, jobs and economy, public lands, recreation, transportation and communities, and water. Envision Utah facilitates stakeholder dialogue and public involvement to pursue a publicly-supported vision for the future.
$1,639,707 spent100% of program spending
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990. Program spending in total: $1,639,707.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $1.4M to $903k (−34%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 35% · 2018 23% · 2019 39% · 2020 13% · 2021 9% · 2022 11% · 2023 31% · 2024 26%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
92% of Envision Utah’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (61% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 6 funders to 7 funders, grant income rose $64k → $322k.
5 of 20 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 7% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
Left out of every figure on this page: $418k from 4 payers (the payer shares this organization's board, largest Ihc Health Services Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money Envision Utah raised.
From the IRS filings of Envision Utah’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
Envision Utah leans on a few funders — its largest provides 51% of grant income and the top three 77%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 31% · 2018 59% · 2019 38% · 2020 65% · 2021 78% · 2022 75% · 2023 78% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
57% of Envision Utah's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 65% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
95% of Envision Utah's grant income comes from Utah funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $185k arriving through sponsors registered in 5 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Against its field
Envision Utah's funding base is broadening — from 6 funders to 7 as grant income climbed.
