| | Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 1 | Title: | Kappa Kappa Gamma Cleveland Alumnae Association Records
| | | | Creator: | Kappa Kappa Gamma Cleveland Alumnae Association | | | | Dates: | 1901-2011 | | | | Abstract: | The Kappa Kappa Gamma Cleveland Alumnae Association (1901-present) was founded in 1901 as the Cleveland Alumnae Association of Kappa Kappa Gamma in Cleveland, Ohio. The early goal was to demonstrate women's ability of intellectual advancement equal to that of men. In 1938 a Cleveland West Shore Alumnae Association was chartered, causing the name of the Cleveland Alumnae Association to be changed to the Cleveland East Alumnae Association. Around 2003, the Cleveland chapters merged, changing the name back to the Cleveland Alumnae Association. The Cleveland Alumnae Association follows a path set by the parent organization of first supporting its sisters, then participating in local service projects and finally, supporting the greater good. With these goals in mind, they act in a support and advisory role for the undergraduate chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma at John Carroll University, Eta Zeta. They also participate in several philanthropic activities. The collection consists of budgets, charts, correspondence, dues statements, invitations, membership directories and rolls, minutes, newsletters, publicity material, programs, songs, and scrapbooks. | | | | Call #: | MS 5153 | | | | Extent: | 2.00 linear feet (6 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Greek letter societies -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Kappa Kappa Gamma -- History | Kappa Kappa Gamma.

| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 2 | Title: | Mount Sinai Hospital Records, Series II
| | | | Creator: | Mount Sinai Hospital | | | | Dates: | 1915-2004 | | | | Abstract: | Mount Sinai Hospital had its origins in the Young Ladies Hebrew Association for the Care of the Needy Sick, created in 1892 by nine young women in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1900, they changed their name to the Jewish Women's Hospital Association. A 29-bed facility, named Mount Sinai Hospital, opened in 1903 at 2373 E. 37th St. In 1916, a new, larger facility was opened at E. 105th St. and Ansel Rd. Innovations included outpatient clinics for pediatrics and mental hygiene, established in 1915. A nursing school was included. Mount Sinai affiliated with Western Reserve University for the training and education of its nurses in 1930, and its doctors in 1947. Medical research was given a high priority. The Women's and Junior Women's auxiliaries provided important assistance to the medical staff and patients, including a nursery school for children of nurses and volunteers. Mount Sinai served as a major medical resource for Cleveland's east side throughout its history. Expansion included a twelve-story building and a kidney dialysis center (1960), a new laboratory facility (1970), and an outpatient clinic in the Cleveland suburb of Beachwood (1972). A new medical wing was added to the hospital in the 1980s, and in 1993 an integrated medical campus was opened at the Beachwood facility. In 1996, the nonprofit hospital was sold to a for-profit company, Primary Health Systems (PHS). In March 1999, PHS filed for bankruptcy, and in February 2000, Mount Sinai Hospital closed. The collection consists of agendas, annual reports, budgets, bylaws, certificates, contracts, constitutions, correspondence, financial statements, handbooks, ledgers, legal briefs, minutes, newsletters, newspaper clippings, notebooks, play scripts, reports, resolutions, rosters, scrap books, histories, publications, speech texts, surveys, and tax records. | | | | Call #: | MS 4919 | | | | Extent: | 28.80 linear feet (39 containers and 11 oversize volumes) | | | | Subjects: | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Jewish women -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Charities. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland | Medical care -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Medical personnel -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Mount Sinai Hospital (Cleveland, Ohio) -- History. | Mount Sinai Hospital (Cleveland, Ohio) | Mt.
