Abstract:

The Female Hebrew Benevolent Society (FHBS) is a non-profit organization founded in 1819 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by Mrs. Aaron Levy and Hannah Levy of Congregation Mikveh Israel. FHBS is the first independent, communal organization established by Jews to serve Jews in the city of Philadelphia and is the oldest continuously operating Jewish charitable organization in the United States. The creation of the Female Hebrew Benevolent Society grew out of a concern for women in need in the Jewish community who were turning to Christian missionaries for assistance. The Levy women reacted by organizing FHBS with the help of Rebecca Gratz who committed to operating the organization in a manner that would aid Jewish women in need, without requiring its clients to participate in organized religious activities in exchange for the assistance provided. The first elected board consisted of Rebecca J. Phillips, Belle Cohen, S. Bravo, and Rebecca Gratz. Gratz served on the Board of Managers as secretary for nearly forty years, until 1858. Under the auspices of the Board of Managers, the Female Hebrew Benevolent Society served as a launch pad for a Jewish educational program modeled after Christian Sunday Schools. This educational program became known as the Hebrew Sunday School Society of Philadelphia and opened on March 4, 1838, under the direction of Rebecca Gratz.

Since its inception, FHBS has been operated by a staff of volunteers. In addition to an unpaid staff, the Board of Managers also saw fit to organize committees that were charged with overseeing a particular section or district in the city in order to render aid to those in need, quickly and directly. Each committee would investigate applicants to determine what if any relief was warranted. Initially, the Female Hebrew Benevolent Society saw fit to provide needy women with basic necessities rather than monetary assistance. Over time, the scope of assistance offered expanded to include coverage of medications, utility expenses, monthly rent, summer camp fees, day care expenses, educational costs and assistive devices such as wheel chairs and artificial limbs. FHBS became an agency of the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, a coordinating organization for volunteer and financial social service organizations and an affiliate of the United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania.

The collection consists of records related to the Female Hebrew Benevolent Society's philanthropic fundraising efforts and the subsequent distribution of those monies to the community of people it serves. This includes but is not limited to case files documenting the process of financial assistance to Jewish women and their families; fliers and brochures announcing FHBS projects and associated programming on poverty in the Philadelphia community; and correspondence from members, allied organizations, and clients. Nearly half of the records are restricted for 75 years due to the contents containing detailed personal information about the clients the Female Hebrew Benevolent Society serves. There is a small amount of material in Hebrew, typically words or phrases scattered throughout the materials.

The collection is arranged into 23 series as follows:

  • Series 1: Board of Managers, 1984-2005
