George and Dolores (affectionately known as “Lolie”) Eccles were among Utah’s most admired and active civic leaders, and were deeply committed to improving the lives of people throughout the state. Their enduring legacy, built over six decades, reflects their vision, philanthropic spirit, and shared passion for giving. From the beginning, the Foundation was established to focus on five key areas: arts and culture, community, education, health care, and preservation and conservation. The impact of their generosity, now exceeding $1 billion, continues to grow and benefit Utahns in countless ways.
