History
The Żydowska Samopomoc Społeczna was set up with sections for: Finance, Clothes Collection, Emergency Aid, Sanitation and Housing for the Homeless. In addition, Local Committees have been set up in the various sections of Warsaw. In this way a fairly complicated and widespread system of public assistance has penetrated through every level and part of the Jewish public, and reaches into the most distant areas populated by Jews.
