Wyoming Community Foundation awards grants to local non-profits
June 27, 2025
The Sublette Local Board at the Wyoming Community Foundation (WYCF) recently awarded over $52,000 in grants to local causes. These grants were made as part of WYCF’s competitive grant cycle, which allows nonprofit organizations from around the state to request funding for important projects and general operating.
Local advisory boards and fund holders also offer substantial support to specific areas of the state. The Sublette Local Advisory Board supports organizations and projects that benefit communities across Sublette County.
"Behind every grant is a group of people working hard to solve problems, create opportunities, and meet the needs of their neighbors," says Cassandra Hunter, Program Associate at WYCF. "Especially in times of uncertainty, with federal shifts and growing need across the state, we’re proud to support the organizations that continue to show up for their communities, often filling gaps that no one else is addressing."
Nonprofits who received grants include:
Children’s Discovery Center
Children’s Learning Center
Pinedale Community Food Basket
Sublette County Historical Society, Inc.
Pinedale Theater Company
Pinedale Preschool, Inc.
Food Bank of Wyoming

We are excited to increase the impact of so many of our local nonprofits who make this such a special place to live."
