Charity Workers Move Toward Forming Associated Charities
A city movement to form an Associated Charities group grew from the Personal Workers league effort before Christmas 1910. A clearing house coordinated gifts and distributions, with 50 baskets valued at about $3 each and numerous garments, stockings, toys, coal, and grocery orders aiding the needy. Donations totaled $1,139.96 with expenditures of $1,136.57, and statistics gathered will be handed to the new charity body.
