Home for Unwed Mothers Stories Updated 2021

Did you stay in a Home for Unwed Mothers in the 1950s, 1960s or 1970s?

I'm doing writing research for a television show and I would love to hear your story.

Also - long shot - but if you had a Black baby boy in 1969 in Chicago and gave him up for adoption - you just might be my brother's bio mom! You named him Wayne. He heard he has a sister who also grew up in an adoptive family.

 

We would love to meet you.

Betty Crocker Search for Homemaker of Tomorrow Scholarship Scrapbook

I am collecting your Betty Crocker Search for the All-American Homemaker of Tomorrow Scholarship photos and memorabilia! 

Send them to me at doll dot documentary at gmail dot com and I will post to this online scrapbook post. If you want to read winners/participant stories go here.

(Recently a gentleman sent me his photos and story and his email has mysteriously disappeared. If you read this, do you mind re-sending? I'm terribly sorry that I can't find it and would love to include your photos.)
