Abstract: The Heights Benevolent and Social Union (HBSU) is the oldest existing Jewish benevolent society in Cleveland, Ohio. Heights Benevolent and Social Union (HBSU) was organized in 1881 as the Hungarian Benevolent and Social Union. By 1969 it changed its name to the Heights Benevolent and Social Union, since membership had been open to non-Hungarians for 50 years. The collection consists of individual and group portraits of presidents of the organization and presidents of the women's auxiliary, and views of annual installation dinners, anniversary dinners, other meetings, and HBSU meeting places.
