The San Antonio Section of the National Council of Jewish Women is dedicated in the spirit of Judaism to furthering human welfare in the Jewish and general communities on a local, national and international level. The San Antonio Section was established in May 1907 in the parlor of the Menger Hotel by a small group of women. Over the years, the organization has made many groundbreaking strides in assisting handicapped and disadvantaged citizens and in promoting education for adolescents and adults. In 1909 the San Antonio Section of the NCJW founded a night school to teach English to foreign born citizens of San Antonio, which inspired the establishment of such courses by San Antonio's Board of Education. Contributions from the city toward the development of prenatal care and aid for the blind were also inspired by early efforts of the San Antonio Section of the NCJW. In later years, the organization sponsored the annual Decorators' Showcase, a fundraising event which financed many ongoing charity programs.

The San Antonio Section of the National Council of Jewish Women consists of administrative records, clippings, scrapbooks and printed materials. The bulk of the materials in the collection are scrapbooks, which represent the history of the organization from 1939 to 1995 through photographs, clippings and printed materials. These materials are a record of the organization's news and events from around the San Antonio and the Bexar County area. Administrative records include a small number of reports and correspondence, as well as minutes from the periods of 1907-1911 and 1959-1964. Dues records from 1955-1963 and staff directories can also be found. Staff directories date from the 1930s, but are only complete from 1974-1997. There are a few newsletters dating from 1954 to 1994. Also included are guidebooks for the Decorator's Showcase charity event from 1967-1977.
The additions expand the years to 2006 and includes much of the same materials, administrative records, clippings, scrapbooks, and printed material.
