12th Annual Tin Cup Challenge

One of the most innovative charitable fundraisers in the nation, the Tin Cup Challenge is also one of the most successful. In 2019, the event raised $1,623,171.20 from nearly 1,093 donors. Since 2008, this event has raised an astounding $14.2 million, directly benefitting Teton Valley’s cherished nonprofits working tirelessly to enhance our quality of life.

Why is the Tin Cup Challenge important?

• Cultivates generosity as a cherished community value.
• Raises funds to help our local nonprofits meet their missions.
• Brings awareness to our hard-working nonprofit organizations.
• Serves as an efficient fundraising mechanism to save nonprofits time, money & resources.

During the 8-week charitable giving period, donors give to their favorite local nonprofits, knowing their gifts will be matched by a grant from the Community Foundation of Teton Valley’s Challenger Fund.

Challengers are a special group of corporations and individuals who give $1,000 or more to the Challenger Fund each year. Gifts to the Challenger Fund are used to host the Tin Cup Challenge and provide matching grants to participating nonprofits. Challengers are community leaders who promote charitable giving and intrinsically value Teton Valley’s nonprofits. The generosity of our Challengers inspires increased community giving and is the key to the Tin Cup Challenge’s success.
