WILLIAM G. POMEROY FOUNDATION 2020

From 1912-1918, room 324 on the third floor of the deLendrecie Building served as the headquarters of the North Dakota Votes for Women League. This space was generously donated by the organization’s treasurer and fellow suffragist, Helen deLendrecie, whose family had owned the building. In these offices suffragists of the North Dakota Votes for Women League worked tirelessly to help women gain the right to vote.
