How emergency & relief agencies actually appeared
This starting post will be an entry point and we’ve decided to start with a brief historic info. So, the first relief agency started to work in 1932, and this was the initiative of president Hoover. Organization itself was giving loans to private individuals (who were also offering used vehicles for sale) and organizations on a range of relief programs.
It’s work was fully funded by the federal government and organization’s development was really vast, especially considering the economic situation of those days. The organization was operating for around three years, it gave work to 2% of US population in that years.
Money-wise, it gave out around 3 billion dollars.
Anyway, in 1935, which means, after 3 years of its existence, it stopped its functioning, thus opening ground to WPA and SSA federal agencies.
