Also known as the Altrusa Club. This business women’s organization got its start in 1894 in New Castle. Its mission is as follows: “To provide a supply of mental food for an entire season, substantial food upon which our minds might grow strong; to secure the crystallized thoughts of the wisest and best, the immortal fruits preserved in history, nectar and ambrosia from the poet’s mind for our dessert. This is to be provided at each meeting to quench our mental thirst for henceforth to be an Altruistic is to be a good ‘liver’, a very epicure in intelligencia luxuries.” View the 1921-22 Altruistic Club Yearbook below:
