Charitable Giving
One of the most innovative fundraisers in the nation, the Tin Cup Challenge is also among the most successful. Since its inception, the Tin Cup Challenge has directed over $25 million philanthropic dollars into our community. These funds are actively feeding the hungry, supporting the sick and elderly, teaching kids to read, protecting wildlife, creating affordable housing, enriching our lives through the arts, and touching the lives of everyone in Teton Valley. This program is administered by the Community Foundation of Teton Valley.
This run has no finish line. It unites us annually in a greater purpose, bringing together every step, every effort, and every individual in a shared vision of a more vibrant and enriched community for all. The Tin Cup Challenge exemplifies the very best of Teton Valley. In this marathon of generosity lies the opportunity for meaningful contribution, for altruism amplified by the kindness of others, and for the singular drive to make a difference.
Volunteering is vital to strengthening communities by bringing people together to support one another and create lasting positive change. When individuals give their time and talents, they help meet immediate needs, build deeper connections, and enjoy a shared sense of purpose. Volunteers are crucial in driving local initiatives forward, from supporting youth and seniors to protecting natural spaces and uplifting nonprofits. Their efforts foster resilience, compassion, and unity—making our communities stronger, more inclusive, and better equipped to thrive.
If you want to volunteer for the event or other opportunities with the Community Foundation, please contact our Program Manager, Brian Thysell.
Since ’07
After participating in the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole’s Old Bill’s Fun Run as a neighboring community for many years, local nonprofit leaders gathered in 2007 to consider starting our own fundraising mechanism on the west side of the Tetons. The Community Foundation of Teton Valley was created as an affiliate of the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole and has been serving Teton Valley nonprofits ever since. The Tin Cup Challenge has raised millions since its inception in 2007 and made philanthropy a household word in Teton Valley.
