The Library’s Endowment for Asian-Pacific American Collection’s goal is to raise $25,000!
The interest earnings from this Endowed Fund will purchase materials and offer programming relating to Asian-Pacific Americans.
The Endowment Fund is the brainchild of former Colorado House District 17 Representative Dennis Apuan, the first Filipino-American in the statehouse’s history.
