Since its founding in 1997, Old Bill’s Fun Run has been produced by the Community Foundation of Jackson Hole for the benefit of the Jackson community. At a high level, the Foundation’s role includes the following responsibilities:
- Receiving and processing all gifts to Old Bill’s Fun Run and issuing tax receipts to donors
- Providing marketing and promotional support for Old Bill’s Fun Run
- Securing CoChallengers and corporate sponsors to generate matching funds
- Producing and executing Old Bill’s Fun Run in partnership with dedicated community volunteers
The Old Bill’s Matching Grant structure was developed to provide partial matching grants that broadly support all participating organizations, as described below.
- Up to $30,000 in gifts designated for specific organizations are eligible for partial matching grants.
- Fiscally sponsored organizations participate under their sponsor’s $30,000 cap.
- The match percentage is variable and based upon the ratio of total eligible designated gifts to the total the Community Foundation raises in matching funds.
- All eligible participating organizations receive the same percent of matching dollars on the first $30,000 in designated contributions they raise.
The Contribution Activity Report excel export provides the total contribution by donors, which includes the 2.4% fee applied to credit card donations. The credit card fees are deducted from your organization’s account before receiving your final grant check.

The Community Foundation provides a secure webpage for your organization to view your Old Bill’s donations.
During Giving Season, your organization’s designated Old Bill’s contact will receive an email with your user ID, as well as guidance on reviewing donations. The Community Foundation staff processes gifts steadily from the start of the Giving Season through mid-October.
All gifts are reviewed prior to posting, including online donations, which creates a delay between gift receipt and when gifts are visible. Note that almost ⅔ of donations arrive in the last week of the Giving Season. Last year, the Foundation received over $1 million dollars in checks and over $300,000 in credit card gifts on the last day. You will be notified when all gifts have been processed. We appreciate your patience!
Participating organizations are encouraged to use the Old Bill’s logo leading up to and throughout the Giving Season. Download the logo files here and refer to the Old Bill’s Rules and Procedures and Brand Guide for branding and logo usage information. Contact Anne Bradley with any questions.
