The young men about 19 years of age ' left their homerf to work in the city and felt the need for fellow ship moral and religious training or guidance. The movement im meaiatelv spread to this country and in 1853 the first Association work among Negroes was organ ized in Washington, D. C. by An thony Bowen a colored man who had purchased his freedom from Gen. O. O. Howard for whom Howard University was named. Today over 75 Associations plus hundreds of other YMCA’s are do i ing work among colored men and boys. | In June 1944 the YMCA obser ved iis fcentennial Celebration during which time considerable thought was giver. to the establi- \ shment of the Association in areas where its wag most needed ana desired by the community It is therefore quite a coincident that the Omaha YMCA together with the citizens recognized this need | and recommended to the Board of 1 Di: ectors of the Omaha YMCA that a branch be established in, this area as a part of their pro- ! posed expansion program. This group met on June 27, 1945 and the records show the following persons in attendance: Mr. Ralph Adams, presiding: Miss Elizabeth Jordan, secretary; Rev. John Adams; Rev. W E. Blackmore; Mr. Robert Myers; Miss Lena Paul; Mr. and Mrs Alton Goode; Mrs. Anna Mary Kennedy; Mrs. Ruth Hall: Mr. Arthur McCaw; Dr. Milton Johnson; Dr. and Mrs W. W. Solomon; Mr. Eugene Skin ner; Mrs. Minnis E Dixon; Mr. Travis Dixon: Mrs. D. W. Gooden; Dr. A. L. Hawkins; Mrs Dorothy Greer; Mrs. Leola Jones; Dr. W. W Peebles; Mr. Duward Crooms; Mr. Joseph Mosely; and Mr. W. H. Mead.
