| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 4 | Title: | Brush Foundation Records
| | | | Creator: | Brush Foundation | | | | Dates: | 1928-1995 | | | | Abstract: | The Brush Foundation was created in 1928 by Cleveland, Ohio, inventor Charles F. Brush to promote research in the fields of eugenics, population and birth control. Early projects funded included the Maternal Health Association and the Brush Inquiry, a research project on the growth and development of children. From the late 1940s-1960s, intensive research on human fertility and infertility, as well as on viral infection, was funded. The Foundation played a crucial role in the establishment of the International Planned Parenthood Federation. Since the mid 1960s, the Foundation has focused on adolescent sexuality and pregnancy, defense of abortion rights, and public policy directed at limiting population growth. Local organizations and institutions that received grants from the Brush Foundation included Black Focus on the West Side; Cleveland Health Education Museum; Federation for Community Planning's Coalition for Adolescent Reproduction, Sexuality, and Health; Free Medical Clinic of Greater Cleveland; and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History's Hamann-Todd Osteological Collection. The collection consists of board minutes, correspondence, financial statements and income tax returns, newspaper clippings, reprints and photocopied journal articles, and various publications. The bulk of the collection dates from after 1965. | | | | Call #: | MS 4736 | | | | Extent: | 2.20 linear feet (3 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Brush, Charles Francis, 1849-1929. | Brush Foundation (Cleveland, Ohio). | Planned Parenthood of Greater Cleveland. | International Planned Parenthood Federation. | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Birth control. | Eugenics. | Population research. | Fertility, Human. | Sex instruction. | Maternal health services. | Pro-choice movement. | Teenage pregnancy.

| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 5 | Title: | Brush Foundation Records, Series II
| | | | Creator: | Brush Foundation | | | | Dates: | 1969-2003 | | | | Abstract: | The Brush Foundation was created in 1928 by Cleveland inventor Charles F. Brush (1849-1929) to promote "research in the field of eugenics and in the regulation of the increase of population." His initial bequest of $500,000 to establish the foundation derived from the fortune that Brush had amassed through investments and his many patents, most importantly the arc light. The foundation was intended as a memorial to his son, Charles F. Brush, Jr., who had died at the age of thirty-four in 1927. He and his wife, Dorothy, had been pioneers in Cleveland's early birth control movement. The collection consists of brochures, budgets, business cards, correspondence, grant proposals, journal articles, manuals, newspaper articles, notes, pamphlets, reference guides, and speeches. | | | | Call #: | MS 5077 | | | | Extent: | 2.00 linear feet (2 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Brush, Charles Francis, 1849-1929. | Brush Foundation (Cleveland, Ohio). | Planned Parenthood of Greater Cleveland. | International Planned Parenthood Federation. | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Birth control. | Eugenics. | Population research. | Fertility, Human. | Sex instruction. | Maternal health services. | Pro-choice movement. | Teenage pregnancy.
