Scope and content
White Shield Home, Community Chest, Bob Lynd. The large home is separated from the road by a slope and many trees. A stairway leads from the sidewalk to the facility. The roof has many dormers and an open area with a flagpole. The Richards' photographer's Woody is parked on the street. The White Shield Home was dedicated in August of 1916 in ceremonies attended by Governor Ernest Lister. It helped young women and girls in need, a service it would provide until 1956. This photograph was taken as part of a series for the Community Chest, likely as promotional tools for its annual fund raising.
