Description: From a Photograph to a Story: An Investigative Research Journey It all started with a simple request: “Can you tell us more about this photograph?” The photo had been spotted in a local grocery store. We knew it was Omaha, but beyond that, we had very little information to go on. There was one important clue—we had been the ones who provided the image several years earlier! What began as a seemingly straightforward request for information quickly turned into a fascinating investigation. We followed clues, explored collections and resources, connected pieces of information, and uncovered a story that was far richer than we initially imagined. Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at this unexpected research journey and discover how a single photograph can become the starting point for a deeper exploration of history. Along the way, we’ll examine the research strategies, sources, challenges, and discoveries that made this such a wonderful lesson in investigative research and document discovery. |

Charity
Our charity this year is Lily Haven, an organization dedicated to empowering girls who have survived difficult and stressful personal experiences. Lily Haven provides a safe, secure place to stay while giving these young women the education, resources, and support they need to build a brighter future.
A monthly drawing will be held at each meeting through the Spring Seminar to raise funds and support Lily Haven’s mission. Tickets are just $1 each, and you can purchase as many tickets as you’d like each month for a chance to win a fabulous prize!
There are also other ways you can support Lily Haven. You can visit their website to make a monetary donation or donate new or like-new items, including clothing, shoes, household supplies, and books. If you donate through their website, simply print your receipt and bring it to the following month’s meeting. You’ll receive drawing tickets for every dollar you donated!
Lily Haven will also be joining us for our December meeting to share more about their mission and the difference they are making. We’ll continue our monthly drawing that month as well.
Please help us make this a successful year for Lily Haven! Every dollar, ticket, and donation can help provide hope, opportunity, and a brighter future for someone who truly needs it. Together, we can help Lily Haven continue helping others. Thank you for your generosity and support!
