These fraternal collars caught the eye of our curator of philanthropy, Amanda Moniz.
When Moniz began researching them, she discovered Lizzie Bowser, a seamstress, made this collar for the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, the largest black fraternal organization in the 1800s.
A seamstress, Bowser made her livelihood making collars and more for members of voluntary organizations like fraternal groups. Along with the her husband, an artist, Lizzie Bowser used her talent as a seamstress and her position in society to fundraise and advocate for the rights and needs of other African Americans.
