Grateful Patient and Family Fund

How do you say thank you when you feel you have been given so much? We understand the value of being able to say thank you for the care you have been given, or you wish to honor the memory of a family member who received care, our Grateful Patient and Family Fund offers a permanent and significant way to say thank you. Foundation staff works with individuals to ensure gifts are directed in a way that is meaningful to each patient's giving needs.   

    

Rally for the Cure Fund

Teton Regional Rally for the Cure Fund provides mammographies for income qualifed and/or underinsured women.  The fund also supports breast cancer community outreach and education. 

Betsy Bigley Memorial Fund for Diabetic Education

Betsy was a dedicated employee of Teton Valley Hospital who battled with Type I diabetes.  After her untimely death at the age of 44, the community made contributions to a fund that was later named, “The Betsy Bigley Memorial Fund.” Teton Valley Hospital Foundation is honored to administer the memorial fund to provide diabetic education to the community.  These funds support diabetic education by providing one-on-one counseling, free community workshops, and medical staff training.  The fund also provides free or discounted insulin, equipment and healthcare of underinsured patients. 

 

Don Betts Fund

Friends and family of community member and local veterinarian, Don Betts have set up a fund that is used exclusively to expand hospital staff training and educational programs. 

 

Employee Gifts Fund

Staff members of the “Gave at the Office” (GATO) Club contribute to the Teton Valley Hospital Foundation through a deduction of their regular pay.  All charitable proceeds benefit the working environment of Teton Valley Health Care.  Staff contributions were recently pooled to purchase a new range for the Dietary Department.      

 

CT Scanner Fund  

The fund provides monies for a new, or refurbished 16-slice CT Scanner.  Hospital administration and medical staff have concluded that our current 4-slice CT equipment will require replacement within the next two years.  A 16-slice will serve our rural critical access hospital needs and aid in healthcare recommendations.
