that of one half that age.
She is the most visible of
all the leading personalities
in Michigan. There is
hardly a function of the
Jewish Welfare Federation,
the Allied Jewish Cam-
paign, the American Jewish
Committee and many re-
lated movements which she
misses. She is a participant
— and an active one.
And while always
noticed and welcomed
cheerfully, she retains a
humble position — that of
participant in the ranks.
She would not be photo-
graphed, yet always is in
sight when a great cause
needs support.
Her glee is in her
background in public ser-
vices, in journalism, as a
public servant and appoin-
tee to major civic positions.
Her first contact with or-
ganized philanthropy oc-
curred when she and the
other members of the
Cheerful Volunteers (Fres-
ers), all age 10, were per-
mitted to play with (not feed
or lift) the children in the
free nursery which her
father had established in
the Hannah Schloss Build-
ing.
Three times she en-
tered and dropped out of
the University of Michi-
gan due to illness in her
home. During one of
these stays she became
the first woman reporter
for the Michigan Daily.
During World War I
she worked for the Family
Service Division of the
American-Red Cross as well
as earning money to purch-
ase a war bond by being the
society editor of the Detroit
Jewish Chronicle.
Following the war, the
United Jewish Charities es-
tablished a free clinic in the
Hannah Schloss Building.

GOLDA KROLIK

She worked for it and fol-
lowed it to the Wineman-
donated building at Oak-
land and Holbrook, known
as the North End Clinic.
During the same period
she was a Sunday school
teacher at Temple Beth El
where she met and in 1923
married Leopold Mayer.
During that marriage she
had three children— David,
John and Judith.
In the 1920s she was
vice president of the
Jewish Women's Clubs
(now National Council of
Jewish Women). The
council taught English to
new immigrants and
Golda was one of the
teachers.
Commencing in 1931, fol-
lowing the death of her hus-
band, she became publicity
director of the Detroit
Community Fund during its
fall campaign and occupied
a similar position for the
spring campaign of the Un-
ited Jewish Charities.
In 1936 she married Ju-
lian H. Krolik, father of
Henry Krolik. Throughout
those years of the latter 30s
she joined the rest of the
community in the attempt
to rescue European Jewry.
She and her husband man-
aged through lengthy
struggles with the State
Department to bring to De-
troit 21 of their European
relatives. She followed Fred
M. Butzel as president of the
Resettlement Service.
During World War II she
headed the Jewish Welfare
Board's hostess unit at the
USO. They initiated the pol-
icy of completely staffing
the USO with Jewish
women on the major Christ-
ian holidays to let the others
enjoy the day in their
homes.
In 1943, following the
major race riot of that
year, Mayor Edward J.
Jeffries, deciding that
there should be a Jew
and a woman on his
newly-appointed Inter-
Racial Committee, ap-
pointed Mrs. Krolik. She
served continuously
under five mayors until
retiring in 1968.
When the Shapero School
of Practical Nursing at
Sinai Hospital opened,
Golda did initial interview-
ing of candidates for train-
ing. She became the second
president of the school.
She was among the
original group organiz-

ing the Detroit Jewish
Welfare Federation's
Women's Division and is
still a member of its
board. She has been a c=
worker and contributor
in the campaigns of lib-
eral Democratic candi-
dates.
Over the years, Mrs.
Krolik received a number of
honors. For 10 years she
was a member of the local
NAACP board, later becom-
ing an honorary director.
She also received the Ar
Award from the Wom ■ __ ,
Division of American
Jewish Congress and the
Pioneer Award of the Wo-
men's Division of the Bnai
Brith.
Both the Workmen's
Circle and the American
Jewish Committee gave
her their annual awards
for public service. St.
Cyprian's Episcopal c=
Church honored her for
her work with volunteers
of all races and colors.
She has worked for the
Red Cross in its Blood
Bank. She had been a staff ')
member of the Red Cross
Home Service and Women's
Hospital Social Service De-
partment. •
Her other communal
achievements include
membership on the advis-
ory council of Federation's
Women's Division and Re-
settlement Service and
Sinai Hospital-Shiffman
Clinic boards. She is a past
president of the Resettle-
ment Service.
Mrs. Krolik was the
chairman of the Jewish
Community Council's
Urban Affairs Committee
from 1967 to 1969 and
served on the boards of the
Jewish Family Service, De-
troit Service Group and
Hadassah.
In earlier years, she
was the chairman of the
Penny Lunch Volunteers
and a volunteer teacher
for German refugees.
Other organizations
which have benefitted from
her involvement are the
Women's Comriaittee of Un-
ited Community Services,

tion Volunteers, Curative
Workshop and Visiting
Nurses Association.
