FHBS is America’s oldest continuously
run Jewish charitable organization —
and is currently celebrating its 200th
anniversary.

“Emergency aid has been at our
core since 1819,” says FHBS President
Eileen Sklaroff. Back when the organi-
zation was founded by the women of
Congregation Mikveh Israel and guided
by Rebecca Gratz, that emergency aid
meant delivering firewood or food.
Today, the Emergency Aid program provides small grants (averaging about
$479) to cover basic needs in a financial crisis, like mortgage payments, utility
bills, doctors bills and health insurance. In its last fiscal year, FHBS distributed
90 such grants to 71 clients. “When you see the difference it makes, you have to
get passionate about helping these women,” says Eileen who, like every member
of FHBS, serves as a dedicated volunteer.

As for Joyce’s crisis over rent money? Over the course of a year and a half,
