History of Hoboken
HOBOKEN'S CHARITIES

Originally published in 1907
THIS WEB VERSION COPYRIGHT 2003 GET NJ

NO other city of the size of Hoboken can boast of a more beneficent charitable institution than St. Mary's Hospital. With an accommodation of 400 patients it gives shelter to and takes care of all the sick and injured of the city who apply for admission, and extends its helping hand to the unfortunate sick and disabled of other parts of Hudson County.

St. Mary's Orphanage is conducted under the auspices of the Church of Our Lady of Grace, established during the pastorate of Rt. Rev. Monsignor Charles J. Kelly.

The Memorial Day Nursery, another very worthy charity, is conducted by a number of ladies who provide shelter and care for the helpless children of parents who are employed during the day and cannot provide care-takers for them.

Other charities are The Helping Hand Coal Club, State Charities Aid Association, Widows' Home, Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, the Frauen Huelfs Verein, Women's Club, Heads and Hearts Society, King's Daughters, Ever Willing Circle, Mercy and Help Committee, Scatter Good Circle, Hebrew Ladies' Aid Society and the Moses Montefiore Ladies' Aid Society.
