1945

WPA turns 100. With World War II happening, the Centennial is commemorated modestly.

“We have, as always, had a warm meal or a clean bed for the girl who needed it. Our services have been extended to as many as we could take care of and we believe that the value of our contacts has deepened. We are proud that we have never, in our long history, discriminated because of race, religion or color. The tranquil association of all in our home has been a tradition with us.”
