Historical Note
In 1893, Hannah G. Solomon, a member of one of the earliest Jewish families to settle in Chicago, organized the Congress of Jewish Women for the World’s Columbian Exposition’s Parliament of Religions. That group of women was renamed the National Council of Jewish Women. Its motto was “Faith and Humanity,” with aims to “seek to unite women interested in the work of Religion, Philanthropy and Education,” “organize and encourage study of principles of Judaism,” and “apply knowledge gained in this study to the improvement of Sabbath Schools, and in the work of social reform.” Within three years, the NCJW had fifty local sections.
The Louisville Section of NCJW was organized in 1895 by Rebecca Rosenthal Judah, who served as its first president. In its first few decades, the local chapter worked with Adath Israel Temple to encourage attendance at religious services and Sabbath School. It also took on the work of providing critical educational and social services in Louisville. It opened the city’s first free public baths for women in 1895 and supported the city’s first summer kindergarten in 1897. At the beginning of the twentieth century, it established the Jewish Corner Library at the Young Men’s Hebrew Association (YMHA), provided financial and volunteer assistance to Jewish Hospital and the Jewish Children’s Home, and contributed to immigrant aid for Jewish refugees. In 1914, the organization set up and managed the kosher Penny Lunch at George Morris Elementary School. In 1921, Rebecca Judah started the Student Loan Fund from the memorial fund of Helena Bloom Goldsmith “for the purpose of furthering higher education for local Jewish boys and girls.”
During the years of the Great Depression and World War II, the Louisville Section joined the Louisville Conference of Jewish Organizations and worked to combat rising antisemitism and help German Jewish refugees. In 1939, a joint committee of the NCJW and the Jewish Welfare Federation opened a Nursery School at the Jewish Children’s Home to provide day care and early educational experiences to the children of working parents and new immigrants. During and after WWII, NCJW members hosted hundreds of Jewish soldiers from Fort Knox for Sunday night and Seder dinners and for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
In the second half of the twentieth century, the Louisville Section took on new community service projects and expanded its political advocacy to provide support for Israel, reproductive rights, mental health treatment, education, and the needs of older adults. In 1946, the Louisville Section began its long involvement in the NCJW Ship-a-Box program, sending supplies to Jewish schools and youth abroad, especially in Israel. In 1950, the mental health committee launched a pilot mental health project using volunteers in the psychiatric ward of Louisville General Hospital. In 1955, the organization started the Golden Age program for senior adults, later renamed Club 60, at the newly opened Jewish Community Center. The following year, under the leadership of Helen Helman, the Louisville Section opened the Nearly New Shop, a consignment store that would become the organization’s main source of fundraising. The store started at 733 E. Market St. and moved to 632 E. Market in 1969, to 815-817 E. Market around 1980, and to Mid City Mall in 1988. The annual Fall Fashion Encore Sale began in 1976. NCJW Parkside, a Senior Adult Day Center, opened in 1986 at Four Courts.
The Louisville Section has helped to establish many social agencies in Louisville and Kentucky that continue to provide services in the 2020s. In 1958, an NCJW study of mental health needs in Kentucky led to the opening of Bridgehaven, a community program in Jefferson County to provide mental health services outside a hospital setting. In 1969, the Louisville Section provided the impetus and funding to establish 4-C (Community Coordinated Child Care). In the following decade, the Louisville Section, the Junior League, and the Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) opened Shelter House, a safe place for runaway and troubled youth. The Louisville Section sponsored the creation of Kentucky Youth Advocates in 1977, helped establish CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) in 1985, initiated Court Watch in 1995, started the Adopt-a-School program in 2000, and raised funds for the opening of the Jefferson Family Recovery Court in 2018.
The year 2025 marks 130 years of the Louisville Section’s active and committed efforts to fulfill the NCJW mission, stated in 2024 as the following: “The National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) is a grassroots organization of volunteers and advocates who turn progressive ideals into action. Inspired by Jewish values, NCJW strives for social justice by improving the quality of life for women, children, and families and by safeguarding individual rights and freedoms.”

Scope and Content Note
The collection consists of twentieth- and early-twenty-first-century records of the Louisville Section of the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW). The Louisville Section in Kentucky was founded by Rebecca Rosenthal Judah in 1895, a few years after the 1893 formation of NCJW as a Jewish women’s grassroots organization. Materials include board and committee meeting minutes, administrative and financial records, correspondence, publications, community and service project files, and scrapbooks. The collection documents the Louisville Section’s administration and membership, fundraising, volunteer service projects, political action on the local, state, and national levels, and support for Israel.
Folders 1-67 contain board meeting minutes, open meeting minutes, and related records dating from 1926 to 2000. Board meeting minutes are missing for most of 1946, late 1973-early 1977, and 1987-1988. Of note are minutes and reports from the Evening Group of the Louisville Section, established in the mid-1940s and revived as the Moonlighters in the late 1970s.
