Overview and metadata sections

Perhaps the oldest Black Y.W.C.A. branch in the United States, the Southwest Branch, later the Southwest-Belmont Branch following a merger with the Belmont Y.W.C.A. in the 1930s, was founded in 1870 when a group of African American women formed the Colored Women's Christian Association. In 1912, this organization affiliated with the Philadelphia Y.W.C.A. as the Southwest Branch, otherwise known as the "Catherine Street 'Y.'" Its leadership in the Philadelphia African American community is evidenced by its hosting of such events as the National Negro Congress in the 1930s and the stature of its members in groups such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (N.A.A.C.P.), the Urban League, and the Pennsylvania Child Labor Association. The Southwest-Belmont Y.W.C.A. also provided assistance to African American women seeking jobs and, following a gift from John Wanamaker, the branch operated the Elizabeth Frye House to help African American women coming to Philadelphia find a place to stay.

This collection contains administrative records, correspondence, financial records, minutes, committee and project records, reports, and photographs related to the YWCA Southwest-Belmont Branch.
