The Pan-Macedonian Association was founded in 1947 in New York City to promote the welfare of immigrant Macedonian Greeks in the United States and Canada.

Annual convention minutes discuss the association's internal organization and debates, events, finances, hostility toward Bulgarians, relations with organizations and activities in Greece, role of women in the association, and other matters. Correspondence documents the day-to-day operations and programs and illustrates internal battles and factional disagreements over the association's funding, administration, and goals. |
