About the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole:
Since 1989, the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole has worked with donors and non-profits to enrich all aspects of our community The Foundation enables donors to establish personal philanthropic funds including donor advised, endowment, field of interest funds and legacy funds to facilitate their giving. With assets of over $29 million, the Foundation gave its 100 millionth dollar in grants in 2006. Annually, the foundation organizes Old Bill’s Fun Run for Charities, an innovative fundraiser for local non-profits. In the past ten years more than 15,000 people have participated in the event and over $45.7 million has been raised for local non-profits. By connecting people who care with causes that matter, the Community Foundation is keeping Jackson whole.
