They have always led with the question, “How can we help?” Their initial vision was to inspire “we” to become “all of us.” And it has. In 2018, you raised an astonishing amount, bringing Old Bill’s Fun Run’s 22-year total to more than $159 million for local nonprofits. Inside these pages, you will see the impact of our remarkable community’s generosity. In fact, one out of every three families in Teton County takes part in Old Bill’s—an event that has become a national model for collaborative fundraising. Old Bill’s lasts only a morning, but because of your support, we are touching lives and working for the community 3 every day. Nonprofits rely on us for professional workshops and resources and receive critical funding through our Competitive and Capacity Building grant opportunities. We convene Community Conversations to find collaborative solutions to local problems. Through our Youth Philanthropy program, the next generation is learning to recognize the greatest needs in Jackson Hole. In 2018, we awarded over $300,000 in scholarships so students can realize their dreams. With over $70 million in assets, we help donors achieve their philanthropic goals by providing charitable giving options and prudently investing their funds. Quite simply, we help people help people. This is our essential value. This is why we are here. It’s all because of you. Kathrine Conover Dick Collister Erika Pearsall President Board Co-Chair Board Co-Chair Community Foundation of Jackson Hole / Annual Report 2018 ABOUT US Our community knows us best for Old Bill’s Fun Run, the collaborative fundraiser that helps local nonprofits raise operating funds. Throughout the year, however, we are busy administering funds, working with donors, and providing grants and resources to nonprofits. The Foundation manages over $70 million in assets and granted over $22 million in 2018. To the right, you will find a comprehensive list of the funds, programs, resources, and services we provide. As illustrated, much of our work connects donors, nonprofits, and the larger community. 4 “The Community Foundation has changed Jackson dramatically.

  • WPLI Resolution
    Matters from Staff Agenda Item # 17 Board of County Commissioners ‐ Staff Report Meeting Date: 11/13/2018 Presenter: Alyssa Watkins Submitting Dept: Administration Subject: Consideration of Approval of WPLI Resolution Statement / Purpose: Consideration of a resolution proclaiming conservation principles for US Forest Service Lands in Teton County as a final recommendation of the Wyoming Public Lands Initiative (WPLI) process. Background / Description (Pros & Cons): In 2015, the Wyoming County Commissioners Association (WCCA) established the Wyoming Public Lands Initiative (WPLI) to develop a proposed management recommendation for the Wilderness Study Areas (WSAs) in Wyoming, and where possible, pursue other public land management issues and opportunities affecting Wyoming’s landscape. In 2016, Teton County elected to participate in the WPLI process and appointed a 21‐person Advisory Committee to consider the Shoal Creek and Palisades WSAs. Committee meetings were facilitated by the Ruckelshaus Institute (a division of the University of Wyoming’s Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources). Ultimately the Committee submitted a number of proposals, at varying times, to the BCC for consideration. Although none of the formal proposals submitted by the Teton County WPLI Committee were advanced by the Board of County Commissioners, the Board did formally move to recognize the common ground established in each of the Committee’s original three proposals as presented on August 20, 2018. The related motion stated that the Board chose to recognize as a resolution or as part of its WPLI recommendation, that all members of the WPLI advisory committee unanimously agree that within the Teton County public lands, protection of wildlife is a priority and that there would be no new roads, no new timber harvest except where necessary to support healthy forest initiatives, no new mineral extraction excepting gravel, no oil and gas exploration or development.

  • Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation
    09-Mollin 12/2/03 3:26 PM Page 113 The Limits of Egalitarianism: Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation Marian Mollin In April 1947, a group of young men posed for a photograph outside of civil rights attorney Spottswood Robinson’s office in Richmond, Virginia. Dressed in suits and ties, their arms held overcoats and overnight bags while their faces carried an air of eager anticipation. They seemed, from the camera’s perspective, ready to embark on an exciting adventure. Certainly, in a nation still divided by race, this visibly interracial group of black and white men would have caused people to stop and take notice. But it was the less visible motivations behind this trip that most notably set these men apart. All of the group’s key organizers and most of its members came from the emerging radical pacifist movement. Opposed to violence in all forms, many had spent much of World War II behind prison walls as conscientious objectors and resisters to war. Committed to social justice, they saw the struggle for peace and the fight for racial equality as inextricably linked. Ardent egalitarians, they tried to live according to what they called the brotherhood principle of equality and mutual respect. As pacifists and as militant activists, they believed that nonviolent action offered the best hope for achieving fundamental social change. Now, in the wake of the Second World War, these men were prepared to embark on a new political jour- ney and to become, as they inscribed in the scrapbook that chronicled their traveling adventures, “courageous” makers of history.1 Radical History Review Issue 88 (winter 2004): 113–38 Copyright 2004 by MARHO: The Radical Historians’ Organization, Inc.
