Stefania Halychyn (1913-1994) was an active organizer and leader in Ukrainian-American women's activities. The Halychyn Papers are organized into three series: organizational files (1935-1956); personal files (1913-1961); and photographs (1929-1957). The papers include mostly material from Halychyn's activities as organizer and president of the Ukrainian Gold Cross, a humanitarian relief and educational association of Ukrainian women in the United States. This material consists of circulars, correspondence, reports and speeches, as well as circular letters from the head of the Organization for the Rebirth of Ukraine (ODVU). There is additional material from her husband's, Dmytro Halychyn's, work as vice-chairman of the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America, and as secretary and president of the Ukrainian National Association. The remainder of the collection is comprised of personal documents and family correspondence.
