Box 3/1 of the Resist Collection is an extensive
accumulation of funding requests all dating from 1973. Each request
from this box was approved by the Resist Steering Committee. (see
below for a complete list of organizations) Organizations
in this box came to Resist from all over theUnited States, including
Hawaii and Alaska, and several groups are also located outside
the US, including, Canada. Included at the beginning of the files
are organizational lists kept by Resist members, listing the groups
funded for each month of the year (not every month is included).
The lists are a collection of notes taken on each group and sometimes
a summary of the request and a short history of the group’s
affiliation with Resist. Organizations in this collection vary
from day care centers and tenant organizations, to medical clinics
and labor unions.
Folders are labeled in the standard fashion: date of the request
to Resist, name and location of the organization, the decision
and the date given by Resist, grant number, and dollar amount
granted to the group. In this box also there are several groups
which have multiple requests in each folder. This will appear
in the inventory as well as on the folder label. This section
houses 109 folders.
