Admin History/Bio
The Men’s Service Group (MSG) of the Baycrest Centre for Geriatric Care was established in 1956 to assist Baycrest with both its fundraising and public relations activities. It also supplied volunteers to help run programs and services for Baycrest’s residents and patients, and acted as a training ground for future lay leaders of Baycrest. Herbert J. Weiss served as the founding president and was succeeded by Charles A. Grosberg in 1960.
The MSG’s activities included driving residents to events, organizing special outings to the theatre, concerts, or sporting events, planning a monthly Sunday Brunch for residents and patients, assisting with recreational programming at Baycrest, and meeting with organizations across Ontario, such as synagogues and service clubs, to disseminate information about Baycrest. The MSG also planned an annual Family Carnival and picnic for residents and their families and organized a variety of fundraising projects, such as its annual Honour Roll publication, an annual Fun Run (now known as the Baycrest Challenge), a letter and greeting card service, garage sales, and the sale of Yarmulkes made by residents. Today the MSG continues to plan and run many of its early projects and services.

Admin History/Bio
The Women's Auxiliary (WA) of the Baycrest Centre for Geriatric Care was established in 1955 as a fundraising arm of the Baycrest Centre as well as a provider of services to the residents and patients. It represented the amalgamation of the two women’s auxiliaries that had previously operated at the Jewish Old Folks’ Home (Baycrest’s predecessor) – The Ladies Executive and the Young Ladies Auxiliary. Dora Till served as the founding President and was succeeded by Lillian Soles in 1959.
The WA’s initial activities included running the volunteer service, the Beauty Salon, the Tuck Shop, religious and festival programming, communicating information about Baycrest to the community, and managing the memorial books and card services. These activities soon expanded to include recreational programming for residents, such as outings, an annual fashion show, and Mazel Tov nights, running Baycrest’s Day Care program, and managing the library, Gift Shop, and Snack Bar. Originally, the WA raised funds through membership fees, the sale of happiness and condolence cards, and memorial inscriptions. In 1959 the WA began organizing an annual Theatre Night fundraising event, which was supplanted by an annual Auxilorama in 1968. During the 1960s members of the WA served in Baycrest’s Women’s Corp to help raise money for the Building Expansion Fund. In 1971, the WA established a junior auxiliary called the Capricorn Group.
Today the WA continues to run many of its programs and services and to fundraise through annual events and campaigns such as, a Gala evening, a spring sale (or Bargain Bonanza), Games Girls Play (an evening of board games and arts and crafts activities), and a Women of Baycrest campaign (to support research into women’s brain health and aging). In 2000, the Women’s Auxiliary Winter Garden opened in the Apotex Centre, which was sponsored by the WA.

Admin History/Bio
Based on the Feb. 2, 1939 report to the Annual Meeting regarding the new proposed permanent structure for the United Jewish Welfare Fund, a Board of Directors was created as the most senior part of the new organization with “final authority for managing the affairs of the Welfare Fund” [Fonds 67, Series 3, File 1, attached report]. Officers of this Board consisted of; a President, one or more (and up to 5) Vice-Presidents, an Honorary Secretary, and an Honorary Treasurer. These 8 were augmented by; 4 representatives of the permanent campaign organization, 17 representatives of the 4 functional divisions of recipient agencies (Personal Service and Relief, Jewish Education, Civic-Protection, and Non-local Agencies), and a further 16 representatives of the community at large.
The President was to be the “leading figure in the functioning of the Welfare Fund”, with responsibility for dealing with pressing issues between meetings of the Executive Committee and for arranging meetings of the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors. Vice-Presidents (not more than 5) were to assist the President with decision-making and one was to substitute as Chair at meetings when the President could not attend.
The Board of Directors had the authority to establish all standing and/or special committees. In 1939, 3 standing committees were established; the Executive Committee, The Budget and Admissions Committee, and the Committee on Interpretation (community education and publicity). The inclusion of up to three Board members within each standing committee was mandatory, with the Chair of the Executive Committee always being an ex-officio member of the Board.
Board of Directors meetings were originally scheduled to occur every six weeks, or if called by the President. Executive Committee meetings were scheduled every two weeks. Division Committees were to meet once a month, but not in July and August. In reality, meeting frequency for the Board and its standing committees varied greatly over the years as wars and social and economic changes created various crises requiring more rapid responses.
Scope and Content
Series consists of one sub-series 3-1, of meeting minutes of the Board of Directors of the UJWF. Records are arranged chronologically.
Notes
Previously described and cited as RG1-8.
Access restriction note: Records documenting the meeting minutes and activities of this Board are CLOSED until they are more than ten years old.
