Ideal Applicant
A locally based Idaho organization (especially in Teton Valley) working in education/early learning, community development, or affordable housing with strong local partnerships and a clear operational funding need.
Good Fit
- • Headquartered or operating in Teton Valley / Idaho
- • Programs focused on early childhood education, K–12 support, or community operations
- • Established relationships with local intermediaries such as the community foundation
- • Requesting unrestricted or operations support at the grant sizes observed ($6K–$50K range)
Geography
Observed giving across the available years is entirely within Idaho; in the latest year all grants went to Idaho organizations.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows five distinct independent recipients and the three-year history shows different grantees each year, so the foundation funds multiple independent local organizations but the overall portfolio is small.
New Applicants
Direct recipient turnover is visible (no repeat grantees), which shows the funder does add new recipients, but the foundation also marks grants as only to pre-selected applicants and there is no public application portal, so an unfamiliar applicant would likely need a local referral or relationship to be considered.
