    Social Life and Social Services in Indianapolis Networks During the Gilded Age and Progressive Era KATHERINE BADERTSCHER ABSTRACT: In late nineteenth-century Indianapolis, a group of citizens, united by social networks, dominated the gov- ernance and management of the city’s social services for several decades. The tight-knit network of men and women worked together at the center of social and philanthropic life. Since its inception in 1879, the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (COS) wielded virtual control over social welfare—making it one of the most progressive and powerful philanthropic organizations in the country. An influ- ential coterie of men and women governed, donated to, and volunteered for the COS and many of its sub-agencies. Then, as now, social networks are as essential for us to understand as social entrepreneurs and charismatic leaders.

Badertscher Submitted to the faculty of the University Graduate School in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Indiana University May 2015 Accepted by the Graduate Faculty, Indiana University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ______________________________ Dwight F. Burlingame, Ph.D., Chair Doctoral Committee ______________________________ Robert G. Barrows, Ph.D. March 6, 2015 ______________________________ Nancy Marie Robertson, Ph.D. ______________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgments My thanks begin with my doctoral committee. Dwight Burlingame advised me throughout my entire program, chose the perfect readings for me in our dissertation seminar, helped me shape the project, and read each chapter promptly and thoughtfully. His steadfast belief in my scholarship and his infinite kindness have been invaluable. Phil Scarpino and Bob Barrows led the seminars during which my dissertation idea took shape. Nancy Robertson challenged me to look at the work from many different angles and suggested a veritable treasure trove of scholarship upon which to draw. All their questions, comments, guidance, and encouragement have helped my work more than mere words can express. My colleagues in the doctoral program and students in the undergraduate program provided unwavering support as I lovingly talked about my research, “my organization,” and “my time period.” I especially thank Barbara Duffy, who chose the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (1879-1883) for her History of Philanthropy doctoral seminar research project. I enjoyed talking about “our women,” sharing our emerging ideas, swapping sources, and basking in one another’s “Eureka!” moments as we made one connection after another.

  • Togethergetting It Done the Total Amount of Volunteer Hours Contributed During the 2011–2012 Fiscal Year Was the Equivalent of Results 17 Full-Time Employees
    2012 ANNUAL REPORT togetherGetting it done The total amount of volunteer hours contributed during the 2011–2012 fiscal year was the equivalent of results 17 full-time employees. Dear Friends, Looking back at any year at Second Helpings is always rewarding. Each year we can celebrate hundreds of thousands of meals served, more than a million pounds of food kept out of landfills, and dozens of culinary job training graduates and their families working toward a more promising future. This year was different. Our challenges included an ever-growing waiting list for our hunger relief program, a test to put the abundance of food from Super Bowl XLVI to good use, the need to build capacity responsibly and still meet our commitments to partner agencies and the promise to help our graduates build meaningful careers in a tough economy. What makes Second Helpings food rescue, hunger relief and job training programs successful is the unique way that our community comes together to make them work. Volunteers, food donors, businesses, faith-based groups, individual donors and many others transform lives throughout our community each day. Together we make sure that every pound of food, every dollar and every volunteer hour is used to fight hunger and poverty throughout Greater Indianapolis. Yes, we rose to many challenges this year, and like everything else we do, we did it together. With thanks, Jerry Adams Jennifer Vigran results Board Chair Chief Executive Officer Financial Highlights Income Statement Year Ended Year Ended June 30, 2012 June 30,

  • A Truly Midwestern City: Indianapolis on the Eve of the Great Depression
    A Truly Midwestern City: Indianapolis on the Eve of the Great Depression Bradford Sample* In her assessment of emergency relief in several cities, Joanna Colcord of the Russell Sage Foundation observed that “A distin- guishing feature of the work-relief program in Indianapolis is that it was preceded by several months of deliberation and planning.”’ What separated Indianapolis’s program from the ill-conceived and poorly executed efforts that were typical elsewhere was its united commu- nity that drew upon the resources and leadership available in both the public and private sectors. The success of the work relief project undertaken in Indianapolis, while neither bold nor original, can be traced, at least in part, to strong leadership and cooperation. Scholars have long chronicled the unsuccessful attempts of local governments to address the devastating social problems brought on by the Depression. Local relief projects proliferated after the stock mar- ket crash in October 1929, but they quickly depleted local resources, and most folded soon after they were begun. By the summer of 1931 local governments and charities could no longer shoulder the respon- sibility for the unemployed.2Cities with high unemployment and lim- ited funding sought state and federal intervention. Most often, historians have concentrated on the largest cities, where in 1930 fewer than 19 percent of the nation lived but where demands for relief were the heaviest. Scholarly studies have rarely focused on local projects in medium-sized cornmunitie~.~ In 1929, Indianapolis was in one of the most productive and industrialized regions in the United States. Ranked twenty-first in population among the nation’s urban areas, its 364,000 people placed it in a group of cities that included Rochester, New Orleans, Birm- *Bradford Sample is a research associate with the University College at Indi- ana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis, and a doctoral candidate in history at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana.
