TITLE: The Work of Charitable Cooperatives. DESCRIPTION: The text is a report on the work of three different charitable cooperatives (zadruge) of Serbian women in Vojvodina and Hungary. The Vojvodina belonged to the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia which enjoyed a considerable degree of autonomy within the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, or Hungary, in the dual Monarchy (from 1867) of Austria-Hungary. Serbian was one of the major languages spoken in the Vojvodina. The three segments of the text are about the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Újvidék) (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja), the Women’s Charitable Cooperative in Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda) (Velikokikindska ženska dobrotvorna zadruga) and the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Segedin (Szeged) (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Segedinkinja), respectively. The article was published in Ženski svet. List dobrotvornih zadruga Srpkinja (Women’s World: Journal of the Charitable Cooperatives of Serbian Women). The journal was published between 1886 and 1914 in Novi Sad (Újvidék), the Vojvodina, by the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja). It was edited by Arkadije Varađanin, a man who was an active proponent of women’s rights and who was a teacher and director of the Serbian High School for Girls established in Novi Sad in 1874. The first part of the article reports that the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad was established in 1880, but that the idea of cooperation had emerged already in 1867 when Mrs. Tomenović – on someone’s incentive– brought together Serbian women. See also, “40-godišnja proslava prve ženske zadruge u N. Sadu [Celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the First Women’s Cooperative in Novi Sad],” Ženski svet, January 2, 1907. Many Serbs, including Prince Mihailo, contributed financially to this organization. In this way, the article aims to show that Serbian men and women were the ones who established the first women’s cooperative in Novi Sad. The author of the text, however, complains that “the non-Serbian sisters” ignored this “sacrifice for this universal human cause” and did not care sufficiently about the needs of the Serbian people, which resulted in Serbian women’s absence from this organization in the end. Consequently, Serbian women established a new women’s organization, Women’s Committee (Ženski odbor), which in 1870 advocated for the establishment of the first High School for girls in Vojvodina, collected contributions for the publication of Serbian romantic poet Jovan Jovanović Zmaj’s poetry collection. Also, the women from the committee helped their Serbian “brothers,” who fought for freedom in Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina by taking care of them. In 1880, the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad was established on the model of women’s cooperatives previously established in Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda) and Bečej (Óbecse). The first activity of the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad was the collection of money for the “brotherly town of Zagreb” that had been hit by an earthquake the same year. The second part of the article gives information about the Women’s Charitable Cooperative in Velika Kikinda (Nagykikinda), the oldest Serbian women’s cooperative established in 1873, whose aim was to help poor widows, orphans and sick people and to educate poor children. Finally, the third part is about the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Segedin (Szeged), established in 1875 with the primary aim of preserving the Serbian nation.
