Dustan Library Leadership Challenge

The $250,000 challenge gift was set up by the estate of Jane Gray Dustan, a long-time library supporter. She had a special interest in the education and well-being of children. All funds collected through the challenge are for new-building construction.

The challenge: raise $250,000 by May 30, 2005.
The grant: Miss Dustan's estate offered to match that amount to make a total of $500,000.
The result: The Foundation met the challenge in a few weeks with a small number of donors. This demonstrates the great potential for fundraising.
