| | | | Creator: | Bellefaire | | | | Dates: | 1867-1995 | | | | Abstract: | Bellefaire, a residential treatment center for emotionally disturbed adolescents, is the oldest Jewish social-service agency in Cleveland, Ohio. It was dedicated on July 14, 1868 as the Jewish Orphan Asylum, established to care for Civil War orphans. By 1900, more than 400 orphans lived there. The name was changed to the Jewish Orphan Home (JOH) in 1919, and later to Bellefaire when its facilities moved to the corner of Belvoir and Fairmount boulevards in 1929. In 1942 the orphanage changed its focus to include residential therapeutic care for emotionally disturbed children and stopped accepting orphans in 1943. In 1954, Bellefaire opened its admissions to children of all faiths and today provides counseling, substance abuse treatment, foster care, adoption services, and residential treatment. The Jewish Orphan Home Alumni Association was established in 1888 to serve and connect the orphans who formerly lived at the Jewish Orphan Home. The Association held Homecomings each year in Cleveland and had several active chapters located throughout the country. "Graduates" of JOH were designated by the year of their confirmation class.

Ill health forced him to lead a secluded life in Bethel, Maine, where he sought treatment at the Bethel Inn under the care of Dr. John G. Gehring. With the advice and support of Dr. Gehring, Bingham turned his focus to philanthropy, particularly the fields of medicine and education. In 1932 he created the Bingham Associates Fund, which provided funding for medical care and training of physicians for rural areas of New England. This plan for regional medical care became known as the Bingham Plan. The Bingham Associates Fund also provided funding for the construction of the Joseph H. Pratt Diagnostic Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, and the Farnsworth Surgical Wing of the New England Medical Center. William Bingham 2nd also gave financial support to Gould Academy, a local private high school in Bethel, Maine, and to many residents of rural Maine, who sought his help in the areas of health care and education. He supported many other religious, educational, and charitable institutions, particularly those of Maine and Florida. In addition to Dr. Gehring, Bingham relied on Dr. George Farnsworth and Dr. Arthur L. Walters as contacts and advisors in his various philanthropic pursuits.
