====== Urevitzer Benevolent Society Inc ======

Formed in 1927 as a New York State not-for-profit organization.((See  [[http://appext20.dos.ny.gov/corp_public/CORPSEARCH.ENTITY_INFORMATION?p_nameid=24393&p_corpid=20939&p_entity_name=UREVITZER%20BENEVOLENT%20SOCIETY&p_name_type=%25&p_search_type=BEGINS&p_srch_results_page=0|NYS Department of State, Division of Corporations, Entity Information]])) A WPA listing ((Source: http://www.jgsnydb.org/landsmanshaft/wpa2.htm)) from 1938 shows 25 original members in 1927.  In 1938, membership is 150 with 80% coming from Yurevichi.  An alternative spelling may be "Yurevetcher Benevolent Society".((Cited in [[http://www.jgsnydb.org/landsmanshaft/wpa.htm|jgsnydb.org]])).  The [[artifacts:lists:landsman:Urevitzer Frauen Club:]] is probably an unincorporated affiliate of this group.
