She appointed Ethel Hamilton, daughter of the Anglican Archbishop of Ottawa, as âMay Queenâ with seventeen councillors, and, in her speech, Lady Aberdeen told them that â⦠the solutions to all lifeâs difficulties ⦠can be put in one word â SERVICEâ.</p> 465<p style="text-align: justify;">Over the last many years the May Court Club of Ottawa has endeavoured to remain true to Lady Aberdeenâs vision, giving service, willingly and liberally, and financial support whenever it was possible.</p> 466<p style="text-align: justify;">âThe May Court Club: <i>One hundred years of community service</i>â, published in celebration of the Clubâs centenary, is available on request from the Club office.</p> 467<h3><span style="color: #333333;">Summary of the History of the May Court Club</span></h3> 468<ul> 469<li><span style="color: #333333;">Lord Aberdeen was Governor General of Canada from 1893 to 1898.</span></li> 470<li><span style="color: #333333;"> His wife, Lady Aberdeen, was a vigorous advocate for social reform during her 5 years in Canada, and she used her position and experience to advance her causes.</span></li> 471<li><span style="color: #333333;"> She started much needed poverty relief organizations such as those she knew in Britain, and was instrumental in founding the National Council of Women, The Victorian Order of Nurses, and the Charity Organization Society in Ottawa.</span></li> 472<li><span style="color: #333333;">Volunteerism had to be an integral factor in the organizations that Lady Aberdeen spearheaded.</span></li> 473<li><span style="color: #333333;">In 1898 she hosted an elaborate May Day Celebration that included the maiden daughters of Ottawa society among its guests. The event illustrated all the pleasures that May Day engenders, including the crowning of a May Day Queen and 12 counsellors named for a one year term. In her opening address, Lady Aberdeen planted a seed. She encouraged the young women to commit themselves to lives of service, both within their homes and in society.  </span></li> 474<li><span style="color: #333333;">In October of that year, the first Ottawa May Day Queen called a meeting of her counsellors and other young women and proposed to form a club with the object of âaccording girls of leisure opportunities of improving their talents and characters, and of helping girls with less t
474ime at their disposalâ. The idea was enthusiastically accepted and the May Court Club of Ottawa began. From the very beginning the focus was on community service to the needs of women, children and the disabled, be it through one-on-one service or fundraising for a specific cause.</span></li> 475<li><span style="color: #333333;">Membership eligibility began with those young women of leisure but progressed in 1908 to include married women.</span></li> 476<li><span style="color: #333333;">The early accomplishments of the May Court Club are impressive. Some highlights. In <strong>1905</strong> it equipped and maintained a childrenâs ward in both the Protestant General Hospital and the Water Street Hospital. That same year it also established a library at St. Lukeâs Hospital that continued at the Civic Hospital up until 2019 when Covid-19 restrictions forced its closure.</span></li> 477<li><span style="color: #333333;">In <strong>1908</strong> Club members began assisting the Victorian Order of Nurses by visiting the sick, supplying nourishing food, making necessary hospital items and raising necessary funds.</span></li> 478<li><span style="color: #333333;"><strong>also in 1908, </strong>the Club opened the first free tuberculosis dispensary in Canada, providing free examinations , food, clothing, and family assistance to those affected.</span></li> 479<li><span style="color: #333333;">During WWI, the Club continued its support for local medical needs. As well it contributed to the Red Cross war work. By the end of the war it was reported that 94,269 garments had been made and sent overseas by May Court Volunteers.</span></li> 480<li><span style="color: #333333;">In <strong>1916</strong> the Club opened The May Court Convalescent Home, which was operated in one form or another until 1997 when the provincial government changed its focus to long term care, and the facility was no longer viable. When it was officially closed, the Club accepted a co-venture proposal from The Hospice of All Saints and opened The Hospice at May Court in 1999. Since then it has become part of Hospice Care Ottawa, and its official name now is May Court Hospice. Every year May Court members vote to give May Court Hospice $100,000.00 towards its utilities, and its quarters in the May Court building are provided rent free.  </span></li> 481<li><span style="color: #333333;">By the end of WWII the Club was supporting the work of 21 different Committees, some dating back to 1898.</span></li> 482<li><span style="color: #333333;">Throughout its history the Club has worked to raise funds in many ways. It has hosted grand balls, fetes, bazaars, puppet shows, literary evenings, and musical evenings. As well, it has supported Homes for the Holidays, a popular Hospice Care Ottawa fundraiser. The Club also solicited private donations as well .</span></li> 483<li><span style="color: #333333;">Today, the largest fundraiser is The Bargain Box, a thrift shop on Laurier Ave, which was begun in 1971. Until COVID-19 restrictions impacted its operations, it raised approximately $95,000.00 a year after expenses. Even with the restrictions, it raised almost $80,000 a year.</span></li> 484</ul> 485<h3><span style="color: #333333;">Highlights of the May Court Club’s Accomplishments</span></h3> 486<p style="text-align: justify;">For some of the highlights of the May Court Clubâs history, please look at one or more of the following:</p> 487<p><a href="https://maycourt.org/history/#TuberculosisClinic"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Tuberculosis Clinic</span></a><br /> 488<span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://maycourt.org/history/#ConvalescentHome">The May Court Convalescent Home for Women</a></span><br /> 489<span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://maycourt.org/history/#PalliativeCare">Palliative Care</a></span><br /> 490<span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://maycourt.org/history/#Community">Community Service</a></span><br /> 491<span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://maycourt.org/history/#FundRaising">Fundraising Events</a></span></p> 492<p>
