What a great turn out! Thanks to all who helped!

A BIG thank you to this awesome community for showing up for the 2026 West Yellowstone Town Cleanup!
From Town Council members, city employees, Forest Service staff, the library, Senior Center, local businesses, families, and volunteers of all ages, every single person who pitched in made a difference. Together, we collected 600 lbs of trash and helped keep West Yellowstone beautiful!
I am especially proud of our school kids who gave their time to help our community. Seeing so many young people step up, work hard, and take pride in where they live was truly inspiring.
Thank you for your time, energy, and community spirit. This is what makes West Yellowstone such a special place to call home. 💚

Holy cow! We’re now just $6,862 away from fully funding scholarships for the 2026–2027 school year.

Thanks to this incredible community, we are so close to reaching our $155,000 scholarship goal. That support is already making a real difference for West Yellowstone students pursuing college, trade school and career training.

To everyone who has donated, shared our posts, stopped by yesterday’s event or cheered this effort on, thank you. Your support means the world.

If you’ve been thinking about giving, there’s still time to help us cross the finish line: https://www.givebiggv.org/organizations/westyellowstonefoundation
