The New Jersey Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs was founded in Trenton in 1919 to improve the status of women in business and the professions. The Federation undertook research projects and advocacy as well as more traditional fund-raising activities. Many of its members were in the work force full-time. In the 1930s, the Federation opposed the protective legislation which was favored by Consumers League and the League of Women Voters, and was an early supporter of the Equal Rights Amendment. In this photograph, members of the New Brunswick Club and needlework students from South River Vocational School cooperated to donate dolls to children in the Kiddie Keep Well program.
