Delavan Aram Public Library Foundation (DAPLF)
OUR MISSION
The mission of the Delavan Aram Public Library Foundation, Inc. (DAPLF) is to provide a vehicle for foundations, corporations, and individuals to give grants and donations to the Aram Public Library for financial support of its current and future needs.
BETZER ENDOWMENT
The purpose of the Robert Gray Betzer Memorial Endowment is to enhance programming for young people at the Delavan Aram Public Library. The Delavan Aram Public Library Librarian and Youth Services Librarian will decide how to best utilize annual distributions from the Fund to enhance programming for young people. Preference should be given to supporting the needs of the Children’s Reading Room, an area that was especially important to Robert Gray Betzer. Distributions may not be used for staff salaries, bonuses, construction projects or operating expenses.
