Private foundation · Grantmaker Ogden, UT EIN: 87-0622259

Crosland Family Foundation Inc was a private foundation based in Ogden, Utah. Its 2021 filing is marked as the organization’s final return, and the filing states that it distributed its remaining investment assets to a donor-advised fund and used remaining cash for charitable donations, final taxes, and administrative costs. The foundation therefore appears to have wound down and stopped grantmaking.
