Income from the investment of all temporary funds is used to support the programs of the Foundation. The balance of operating costs are met by contributions from the Board of Directors. This action ensures that every dollar donated through the Community Foundation is granted back out into the community. We distribute information to donors and the community about opportunities in charitable giving. We publish a Directory of Jackson Hole Non-Profit Organizations as a service to the community.
Every nonprofit organization responding to a request for information is included.
We convene workshops on nonprofit administration and management and informal gatherings for nonprofit staff and board members. We match donations of office equipment with nonprofit organizations that need them. The Teton County Library has developed a comprehensive grant writing resource center. The library is a Foundation Center Cooperating Collection. In addition, the library helps coordinate a mentorship program in grant writing.
