Hide Profile

The collection contains extensive documentation of the planning and budget-allocation and, to a lesser extent, fund-raising, activities of the United Way of Minneapolis -- previously known as the United Fund, the Community Chest, and the Council of Social Agencies -- for the period 1920-67. A War Chest series deals with the special arrangements for war-relief and war-related fund raising during the World War II era. Topics include the full range of social services provided under United Way auspices, among which are day care, family services, group work, health care, recreation, settlements and neighborhood centers, and services for children, youth, and the aged.
