Founded in 2002, the Engelstad Foundation was established to continue the philanthropic efforts of Ralph Engelstad. It was originally developed with the purpose of promoting medical research, improving the lives of people living with disabilities and creating new possibilities for high-risk individuals. The Engelstad Foundation focuses its efforts on education, healthcare, disabled individuals and childhood issues, among other areas[1]. The foundation controls about $800 million in assets and has given hundreds of millions in grants, scholarships and donations to a number of nonprofits and partners throughout the United States[2]. HistoryIn 1979, Ralph Engelstad opened the Imperial Palace, where he received attention for hiring disabled individuals, which was rare at the time[3]. The Engelstad family continued quietly donating to charities and institutions in communities they had connections to. In 2002, Ralph and Betty Engelstad officially formed the Engelstad Foundation with the goal of continuing Ralph’s charitable work[4]. LeadershipThe Engelstad Foundation is currently run by trustees Betty Engelstad, Kris Engelstad McGarry and Jeffrey M. Cooper[5]. MarketsSince 2002, the Engelstad Foundation has provided more than $300 million in grants to organizations spanning the states of North Dakota, Nevada, Minnesota, Utah and Mississippi[6]. The Engelstad family has history in the markets that the foundation serves. For example, the foundation holds strong ties to Thief River Falls, Minnesota, where Ralph Engelstad was born[7]. There is a strong presence in North Dakota as well – where Ralph Engelstad graduated from the University of North Dakota and met his wife, Betty, during his time in Grand Forks[8]. The foundation is currently based in Las Vegas, Nevada, where Ralph Engelstad built his business as an entrepreneur and where the Engelstad family has lived for many years[9]. PhilanthropyDonations to organizations focus on various categories including animal compassion, at-risk individuals, education, historical preservation, medical research and support, people with disabilities and veterans[10].
