Dear Nineteenth Century Charitable Association Members: 

How are you doing in this time of everchanging rules and concern for our national health ?  I hope you are all OK. 

I miss seeing you. We had such lovely energy while sharing camaraderie at our warm and friendly luncheons, our excellent educational experiences, and our beautiful building.  Hopefully you are keeping some of that spirit alive while being limited by measures put in place by our governments. The Nineteenth Century is following government guidelines. 

I want to assure you that your Nineteenth Century leaders are meeting to put measures in place to keep you and our staff safe. We also want to maintain our beautiful building and assure the organization is financially stable.  As the government guidelines change, we adapt.  

Changes of which to be aware:   

1. Our Member business meeting will not take place on April 27.  At this meeting we would normally vote on nominated Board officers, find out the status of our organization and hear about planned activities for 2020-21 fiscal year.  Because this vote is crucial for our bylaws, we are sending you an electronic vote. Please look for it.
2. Since the Village of Oak Park has asked us to remain in our homes, the building will not be open for committee meetings until that restriction is lifted.
3. You might find that we will have more fun activities this summer to help us continue to enjoy each other and to further our mission.
4. Our scholarship team is poised to move forward to choose our scholarship recipients for the 2021-22 school year.
5. Any changes to programming will be announced as world events progress.
6. Our community partners will not be using the building until their gatherings are within government guidelines.
