As part of the 2025 Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines Member Impact Fund, Bank of Utah helped secure more than $200,000 in grant funding for 30 nonprofit organizations — more than any other financial institution in the program. These grants are helping local organizations throughout Utah create meaningful, lasting impact in the communities they serve.

Ogden Contemporary Arts
Ogden Contemporary Arts (OCA) connects local and regional artists with the international contemporary art community through exhibits, facilities and educational programs. By providing space to create and platforms to share, OCA fosters both artistic growth and public engagement.
Bank of Utah proudly supports OCA’s mission to enrich the community through art. That support includes helping artists thrive and expanding access to creative programs for youth who might not otherwise have the opportunity to explore their artistic potential.
Funding from the 2025 Member Impact Fund will support the Artist Factory, a hands-on workshop program for at-risk youth. The grant will help provide materials, mentorship and meaningful creative experiences that build confidence, inspire expression and promote personal growth.
