Series I: National Council of Jewish Women, Greater Boston Evening Branch Records, undated, circa 1982-1994

The records of the National Council of Jewish Women, Greater Boston Evening Branch consist of an incomplete run of newsletters spanning the group’s operation between the years 1982 and 1994. Originally called the NCJW Moonlighters of Greater Boston, the branch went through two name changes before merging with the NCJW Greater Boston Branch, becoming the NCJW Greater Boston Young Women’s Branch in 1984 and the NCJW Greater Boston Evening Section in 1988. The run of newsletters here reflect these changes. Also included are mailings to group members, invitations, and announcements, as well as summaries of past programs put on by the Young Women’s and Evening Branches.

This collection was donated by Janet Zerlin Fagan, who was the original coordinator of the Moonlighters and on the board of the later permutations of the section. There are some pages of notes and minutes from board meetings, primarily from the period of the Young Women’s Branch and the Evening Branch, and a small group of correspondence. The collection is arranged in chronological order.
