Scope and Contents: The records of the Julius Rosenwald Fund consists of dockets of business and minutes of meetings held by the following bodies of the Fund: Executive Committee, Finance Committee, Board of Trustees and members. Also included are financial records, including audits and reports of the comptroller; annual reviews of activities of the Fund; documents related to the Fund's charter and by-laws; biennial reviews by Edwin C. Embree; and records of the Fund's fellowship program.
Although there are gaps in the records, primarily in the dockets of business and minutes, this collection documents to a large extent the business and activities of the Julius Rosenwald Fund during the period 1928-1948. Only one document predates 1928; it is a financial audit dated 1920.
