Hiram House The Hiram House was one of the first settlement houses in the United States. It was founded in 1896 by George A. Bellamy and students from Hiram College. It was located on Orange Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio, and offered English classes for immigrants to assist in passing the exams for citizenship. Financial support came from the Mather, Prentiss, and Hunt families. The Orange Avenue facility operated until 1941. The Hiram House Camp, located on a site in the nearby Chagrin River Valley village of Moreland Hills, was purchased in 1902.〔 The organization has operated a summer camp continuously since 1897.〔 == References ==
