On behalf of the Associated Charities, of which Supreme Court Justice Brewer is president, and the Citizen’s Relief Association, of which General Sternberg is president, Brewer and Sternberg request donations to support their work in “befriending, relieving and upbuilding the friendless, undeveloped, sick, widowed and despairing poor people of the community.” They reach out to the Roosevelts because they had been subscribers in the past.
