Delap knows what counts.
It's the people and it's the community.
On July 1, 2008 Delap celebrated our 75th year of service in public accounting. For three quarters of a century, we have offered the highest level of professional services to our valued clients. Although much has changed over the years in both our community and profession, our goal has remained the same.
Our mission is to invest in the success of all those we service, and to do it under a common set of values based on integrity, character, quality, and teamwork.
As we dive into our 75th year of service, Delap is actively participating in various community and charity events over the course of the next six months. Donating our "Time, Talent & Treasure" is our way of giving back to a community that has supported us for these past 75 years.

Oregon Food Bank ... because no one should be hungry.
Oregon Food Bank distributes donated food throughout a statewide network of more than 919 nonprofit, hunger-relief agencies serving Oregon and Clark County, WA and works to eliminate the root causes of hunger through education and advocacy.
