Korman Endowment is intended to benefit children's programs at any of the 21 library branches across the City. The original gift was a pledge of $100,000 by the friends and family of Joy Korman to celebrate a significant birthday in 2015. A percentage of the earnings (not the corpus) are made available by the Foundation to the JPL each year to support early literacy, storytimes, a book festival, and other programs for children.

Digital literacy is, of course, as essential to success today as verbal literacy. More customers than ever before are using the library as a public space to collectively learn, create, and expand their knowledge and abilities. JPL spaces are used to access the Internet, search for jobs, take classes, utilize online government services, and promote a learning culture throughout the community, equally for all people.
All funds raised by this campaign go directly to fund technology programs, services, and equipment defined by the JPL. This includes monies to fund the Jax Makerspace. Donate now!
