message: I am a law student research assistant. I am attempting to add edits to this page and related pages in order to enrich the wealth of knowledge about the field of foster care, child placements, and the involvement of religious institutions. Unfortunately, many of my edit attempts have been undone based on an apparent flag for conflict of interest. However, the source I am primarily adding is a relevant academic work, much like many of the other admitted sources on this page. I have also assisted in flagging additional sources, cross-referencing other Wiki pages, as well as correcting existing typographical and grammatical errors. I am proposing my edits below in bold in the hopes that you will implement them (or revert to the previous version of this page that includes them). I noted that you cited potential plagiarism, which I don't quite understand given the direct citation, but I have modified the language to avoid the problem. Thank you for your time. 
To be added to the end of 1st sentence of ¶ 4 in History Section:
, and was also home to the country's largest and wealthiest Jewish community. Katz, Elizabeth D. (April 1, 2024). Fostering Faith: Religion and Inequality in the History of Child Welfare Placements. Fordham Law Review. SSRN 4566892.
New ¶ 5 (to go in between paragraphs beginning with "By 1800" and "South Carolina," respectively):
In 1801, Jewish residents formed the Society for the Relief of Orphans and Children of Indigent Parents, which later became known as the Hebrew Orphan Society and worked to find private homes for orphaned Jewish children.  Thus, many Jewish children likely did not live in public orphanages in the city at the time, such as the Charleston Orphan House, the country's first public orphanage.

In the early nineteenth century, Charleston was home to the largest and wealthiest Jewish community in the United States. Katz, Elizabeth D. (April 1, 2024). Fostering Faith: Religion and Inequality in the History of Child Welfare Placements. Fordham Law Review. SSRN 4566892.

Jewish residents formed the Society for the Relief of Orphans and Children of Indigent Parents, which became known as the Hebrew Orphan Society, in 1801. The following year, the society began finding private homes for orphaned Jewish children. Thus, many Jewish children likely did not live in public orphanages in the city at the time, such as the Charleston Orphan House, the country's first public orphanage.
