Welfare Square

Welfare Square is a complex in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), to provide material assistance to poor and otherwise needy individuals and families. Welfare Square is part of the Church's Church Welfare System. It includes a 178-foot, 300,000 bushel grain silo, fruit orchards, a milk-processing plant, a cannery, a bakery, a Deseret Industries thrift store, a private employment office, and the LDS Church's largest Bishop's storehouse, as well as associated administrative offices.
Most of the assistance provided at Welfare Square goes to those who are members of the LDS Church.
Welfare Square provides regular employment for around fifty people, in addition to the two hundred rotating volunteers needed to provide its services and run its operations. Fast offerings from local LDS congregations fund its operations.〔
==History==
Welfare Square was created in 1938,〔 under the direction of the Church's General Welfare Committee, which itself had been formed just two years earlier. Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, as the United States was experiencing the Great Depression Welfare Square became the flagship of the Church's Welfare Program.
A four-year renovation started in the late 1990s, and was completed in 2001. The 1940 granary building was the only structure on the site that was not significantly refurbished or newly built at that time. The concrete grain elevator can hold 318,000 bushels of wheat (about 19 million pounds).
In 2011 the Utah legislature passed, and the governor signed, a bill commemorating the founding of the LDS Church's Welfare System, of which Welfare Square is the centerpiece.〔
