The Union Benevolent Association was established in 1831 to provide assistance to Philadelphia residents by lending stoves to help heat their homes during a harsh winter along with wood and coal.

This report contains a list of people who contributed to the Union Benevolent Association for the previous year with the amount given as well as detailed data about the people with whom the association had worked. The male officers of the Association are listed; none of the members of the Ladies' Board of Managers are named although the majority of the report is theirs. Scarce.
