Teton Valley is indeed fortunate to have a wide range of public resources such as schools, churches, public safety organizations, and medical facilities, but it also has an effective and important network of non-profit organizations. The non-profits, with their many volunteer workers, provide critical services that a small community could not otherwise afford, and they provide an invaluable way for the citizens to contribute to their community. The Community Foundation for Teton Valley has provided an organized way for charitable giving to flow into the community.
