In its most recent round of grantmaking, the Wyoming Community Foundation (WYCF) awarded over $728,000 to nonprofit organizations across the state. WYCF is dedicated to building a better Wyoming in good times and bad. Much of this funding will support services that Wyoming residents and communities depend on.

WYCF made nearly 100 awards to Wyoming nonprofit organizations. These organizations address a wide range of issues, including food scarcity, elder care, youth opportunities, and the arts. Grant-supported projects range from the Edible Prairie Project, which provides locally grown produce to low-income people in Campbell County, to the Wyoming Breast Cancer Initiative’s work to increase cancer awareness, early detection, and quality of life across the state.

The Sublette Local Board awarded $16,500 to causes that serve the community. Grantees include the Pinedale Fine Arts Council’s program of performances, school residencies, Dementia Care Art programs and summer events. A WYCF grant will also support public and educational events surrounding the Pedigree Stage Stop Dog Sled Race, giving locals the chance to meet mushers and dogs. The Sublette Local Board awarded five grants in total.

"These programs are essential to building stronger communities and a better state. We are pleased to be able to support our community of nonprofits and incredibly grateful for their work," says Micah Richardson, WYCF Director of Programs.

For over 30 years, WYCF has granted over $100 million to charitable causes around the state. These grants rely on support from donors from across the state. Funds are held by WYCF and invested, ensuring ongoing returns to support charitable causes in the long term.
