Why Give to the University of Utah Hospitals and Clinics?
What is the Here For You Fund?
You may not always be thinking about us, but when it comes to health care for you, your family, and our community, we’re Here For You.
The Here For You Fund supports the top priorities and rapidly changing needs of the hospitals and clinics.
Whether it is building the future of medicine through new and innovative spaces and equipment, caring for patients and emerging community health care needs, or supporting our care teams as they care for others, your gift helps provide exceptional care for you, your family, and our community.
Compassionate Care Without Compromise
We have been ranked the #1 Hospital in Utah by U.S. News and World Reports for the last 8 years running.
Education for Science & Health Care Professionals
We create and run training programs for doctors to begin working in our communities, allowing us to retain top talent in our hospitals and clinics.
Reaching the Communities That Need Us Most
You, your family, and our staff are members of the same community – we are passionate about doing everything we can to ensure you get the care you need.
WE ARE GRATEFUL THAT YOU’RE WITH US
ENSURES CARE, INNOVATION, AND COMPASSION
WHERE IT’S NEEDED MOST.
YOU’VE MADE SO MUCH GOOD HAPPEN AT THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH HOSPITALS AND CLINICS
Because of you, fragile newborns in our NICU have the life-saving giraffe incubators they need to grow stronger and heal. With more than 1,200 infants admitted last year, your generosity provides our tiniest patients a safe, womb-like environment and gives families hope during their most difficult moments.
And it’s not just our tiniest patients who are benefitting—thanks to you, brand-new IV pumps are now in place across our hospitals.
These smart little machines may not get much fanfare, but they’re game-changers for patients of all ages. They deliver medications and fluids with pinpoint accuracy, making care safer, faster, and more comfortable. In short, you’ve helped give our entire hospital community a serious upgrade!
Because past supporters gave generously, we were here when you needed us. Today, your continued support of the Here For You Fund ensures we can be here for every one of the 2.4 million patient visits we manage each year.

HERE’S WHAT’S HAPPENING NOW BECAUSE OF YOU

1. CARE WITHOUT BARRIERS
No one is ever turned away. Last year, University of Utah Health provided over $120 million in uncompensated care. This year, your gifts through the Here For You Fund will add critical support, ensuring patients and families facing hardship get the help they need when it matters most.
2. ANSWERS, CLOSE TO HOME
Your generosity will bring new ultrasound equipment to our busy Sugar House Clinic, giving patients faster answers and better care across many specialties.
3. EMERGENCY CARE FOR ALL
The Emergency Department never closes its doors—and your giving will help add to funding vital upgrades that reduce wait times, improve efficiency, and keep both patients and care teams safe.
When I got the call that the surgery was a go, I was both terrified and exhilarated. But the University Hospital team was there for me and my family every step of the way.

I had complete faith in the Team USA medical network, so when they said I would go to the University Hospital, I trusted I was getting the best possible care – and they didn’t let me down.

The labor and delivery staff were so compassionate and kind. It calmed me to realize there was a knowledgeable, caring team of doctors and nurses walking this journey with me.
