Collection Overview
- Biography / History
- Altrusa International, Inc. is an international organization of professional women who work to create community-wide enrichment through volunteer service. Professionals are drawn from a wide range of backgrounds and careers. Historically, membership was by invitation, and individual clubs monitored applicants to ensure that only one representative from any specific business field or profession was selected for invitation. While members must be classified according to a particular field or career, the organization itself is non-partisan and non-sectarian.
- At the local level clubs concentrate on programs to benefit their communities as well as participate in international projects supported by Altrusa International, such as the Grants-in-Aid fund and the Founder's Fund. While the creation of local committees might show variation, the main organizational structure has not changed since the emergence of Altrusa in 1917. Local clubs, headed by a Board of Directors, are grouped into Districts, each of which is under the supervision of a Governor and her corresponding Board of Directors. Above the District level is the International level, which is headed by the President of Altrusa International and her Board.
- The Altrusa Club of Lexington was founded on November 15, 1923; the organization did not become International until 1935. Jessie O. Yancey, formerly of the Louisville Club (1917), was its first president. Membership regularly included members connected to the University of Kentucky, including former UK Special Collections head, Jacqueline Bull. As Altrusa International grew in membership, district lines changed, with the Lexington Club shifting from the third, to the fifth, and finally the sixth district, which, as of current, includes Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky. Several members of the Lexington Club have gone on to serve at the District and International level. The Club, still active, now refers to themselves as Altrusa International of Lexington.
- Scope and Content
- The Altrusa International of Lexington records (dated 1923-2019, undated; 17.84 cubic feet; 33 boxes, 1 folder) contain administrative papers, correspondence, financial papers, conference reports, event programs, minutes, artifacts, printed serials, scrapbooks and a small selection of photographs, posters, and personal members' papers. Predominantly paper-based with a large collection of newspaper clippings. While the collection includes records from the early to mid 1990s, the bulk of the collection is between 1923 and 1989, as corresponds with the Scrapbooks and Minutes.

Contents of the Collection
Administration, 1957-1974
Scope and Contents
Administration contains papers and correspondence regarding the administration of club activities as a whole. Series have been constructed to reflect the administrative board of the club, namely, the Board of Directors, also known as the Executive Board. Subdivided by International, District and Local, referring to the corresponding administrative levels of the of the Altrusa International organization, distinct differences being that District Boards are headed by a "Governor," who oversees activities of all those local clubs within district lines. General papers lacking better classification under alternative series have also been placed here under "General." For papers and correspondence as originating from a specific committee, see the Committee series.
Given the organization's specific requirements as to membership into the club, papers relating to club membership and classification are quite numerous. See both the Membership Committee and the Membership series under the Local Administration branch. The Club Manuals also provide explicit information regarding the organization of Altrusa, the creation of a local club, and the induction and responsibilities of members.

- Box 1, folder 22
Scope and Contents
Postcard reads "Aloha from Kauai" and depicts Waialua Falls. Greek Christmas card design displays "Kala Christougena" in Greek with a colorful picture of a ship and what appears to be faint doodles (circles as little faces for the "sailors" on the ship). The inner message text is in English.

- Box 2, folder 33
Scope and Contents
The letter discusses the Christmas holidays and is signed "Ellen," with the addressee being "Office."

The "draft notes" were typed on a sheet of paper with the header for the Mildren Burress Insurance Agency, however there lacks a name or proper title. It is suspected that the written passages were meant for a speech to be presented to Altrusa members. The contents discusses problems facing women's equality and social independence.
