Extent:
2.7 Linear Feet
Scope and content:

Though the bulk of the materials relate to Banham's work for the Altrusa Club (1934-1985), an all-women philanthropic organization, the series documents more than twenty organizations in which Banham played various roles from member to officer to founder. The materials included in this series consist of correspondence, notices, reports, minutes, membership records, agency histories, constitutions, by-laws, mission statements, and news clippings. The records of these agencies and clubs are of particular interest not only for Banham's contribution, but also for the role they played in the history of the city of Durham and the State of North Carolina: the American Association of University Women, Durham Branch (1948-1976); the Coordinating Council For Senior Citizens (1967-1985); the French Club (1956-1965 and 1969-1976); the Golden Age Club (1949-1968); the League of Women Voters of Durham (1980-1986); the North Carolina Psychological Association (1948-1986); and, the Photographic Arts Society (1964-1984).

Arrangement:

The Agency and Club Participation series is arranged alphabetically by the names of the agencies and clubs.
