Delbert and Helen were residents and business owners in State College. Delbert, born in Lock Haven, established a building and contracting business in Happy Valley. He was friends with Judge R. Paul Campbell, one of the principal founders of Centre Foundation, and the couples attended church together at St. Paul's United Methodist Church. After Delbert's passing, Centre Foundation learned in 1995 that he had generously left the largest gift ever received up to that point. The Myers' legacy continues through the work this fund supports, as well as through their United Way Fund. This fund supports Centre Foundation’s discretionary funds, which are used to meet the changing needs of Centre County residents. In a unique role as philanthropic leaders of the community, foundation board members and staff are equipped to understand the changing needs of the community and to focus grants where they can make the most impact over the years.
