Möhlstrasse 37: Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society
The Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) was an aid organization founded in 1902 in the USA to assist Jewish immigrants fleeing pogroms in Russia and Eastern Europe. Its predecessor had already been active since 1880. After World War II, HIAS assisted Jewish survivors in their search for relatives and facilitated the emigration of Jewish DPs, primarily to North America.
