Here are two ways of setting context:
$.proxy(function() {
this.doStuff();
}, this);
…
var that = this;
that.doStuff();
Is there any reason to use one and not the other?

The second approach is pure javascript.
The first one rely on a framework (jQuery in your case).
There is no one better than other.
I prefer the second one which is framework free.
