Mission & History

Since 1965, we have been helping local charitable organizations better serve our community

Our Mission

Through knowledge and research of local non-profits, we collect and distribute funds focusing on the basic needs of food, health care, education and community service.

Our History

The Greater Delafield Community Fund was founded by George Butzer and Ralph Mehlos in 1965 as a grass-roots initiative that included children going door-to-door with tin cans to collect spare change. As it was in the beginning, the goal is to raise funds for non-profit organizations and agencies that serve and enhance the Lake Country community.
