New Age Federal Savings and Loan Association was founded in 1915 by a group of black community leaders to provide loans to black St. Louisans to build or buy homes at a time when St. Louis banks and financial institutions consistently refused to make such loans. The association has played a major role in extending credit to individuals, organizations, businesses and churches in St. Louis.
The New Age Federal Savings and Loan Association records include correspondence, minutes, reports, newsletters, and programs.
