Library Grants

​Funds for grants to the Estacada Public Library are generated by:

1.  Annual dues
2.  Annual disbursements from the Betty L. Baker Fund as
     administered by the Oregon Community Foundation.
3.  Donations
​Note: The Friends of the Estacada Public Library is an eligible cultural organization of the Oregon Cultural Trust. This means that any donation to us will qualify you to make a matching gift to the Oregon Cultural Trust and therefore become eligible for Oregon’s innovative cultural tax credit.

4.  Outside foundations
5.  Sales from the Chapter Two Bookstore
