Answer 1

It would be the Christian Churches 

Answer 2

The correct answer is C) Christian Churches.

During the early 20th century, the group that was dedicated to providing aid to the poor in America was the Christian Churches.

During early 1920, poverty in the United States was a real issue. The US stock market crashed in October 1929, generating the Great Depression. Millions of people lost their jobs, many companies closed and most banks went into bankruptcy. In the middle of such havoc, Christian Churches were places that extended a hand to the ones in need. Although it was not enough, it indeed represented a place of help during these harsh economic conditions.
