In-kind donations

In-kind donations (or gifts-in-kind) are a kind of non‐cash charitable giving in which, rather than giving money to buy needed goods and services, the goods and services themselves are given.

Helping your community

Making a charitable gift to Intermountain hospitals is a powerful way you can support care in your community. While we appreciate receiving your gifts including toys, blankets, and other in-kind donations, for the protection of our patients, we are not able to accept all gifts. Please review the guidelines carefully before dropping off your donation.

Guidelines and frequently asked questions

Review these guidelines to ensure your donations can be accepted

To make an in-kind donation, you can reach out to volunteer managers at specific hospitals (see contact information below). Volunteer managers can confirm that your donation meets our current needs and will schedule a drop off with you. Volunteer managers can also answer questions and give details about donation delivery. We also maintain a wish list for in-kind gifts on Amazon.
