 Creator:  Eleanor B. Rainey Memorial Institute 
 Dates:  1923-1970 
 Abstract:  The Eleanor B. Rainey Memorial Institute is one of the oldest settlement houses in Cleveland, Ohio, first organized by Anna Edwards as a reading and lunch room for boys and workmen in Cleveland's East 55th Street and Superior Avenue area. The institute was named for Eleanor Rainey, whose financial support helped found the settlement in 1904. Following the death of Anna Edwards in 1923, her sister Flora served as director until 1949. The institute joined the Neighborhood Settlement Association in 1959. Since 1967, the institute has attempted to achieve its goals through music, doing so in cooperation with the Cleveland Music School Settlement. The collection consists of materials outlining the history and the 60th anniversary celebration in 1964; trustee, director, and board correspondence, 1938-1966; records detailing the institute's involvement in the Greater Cleveland Neighborhood Centers Association; building upkeep and renovation records; financial statements; general activities material; and a eulogy for Anna Edwards.

 Creator:  Housing Our People Economically, Inc. 
 Dates:  1965-1979 
 Abstract:  Housing Our People Economically, Inc., was a non-profit organization founded in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1965 to rehabilitate existing houses and build new ones for residents of Cleveland's Hough neighborhood. It depended on government and foundation grants for much of its support, and, by the mid-1970s, owned and managed over 250 units of housing. The group floundered in 1984 after reports of corruption and poor management made it difficult to obtain adequate funding. The group was known as HOPE. The collection consists of correspondence, memoranda, press releases, proposals, reports, information about property holdings, a subject file, blueprints, and newspaper clippings.
