Welfare Square, Humanitarian center in Salt Lake City, United States
The Welfare Square complex includes a grain silo, milk processing plant, cannery, bakery, grocery store, and employment assistance offices spanning several city blocks.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints established Welfare Square in 1938 to address community needs during the Great Depression recovery period.
Members of the Church contribute monthly fast offerings, which fund assistance programs providing food and resources to individuals experiencing financial difficulties.
Visitors can participate in guided tours lasting one hour to observe food production facilities and learn about the organization's worldwide humanitarian efforts.
The 178-foot concrete grain elevator stores 19 million pounds of wheat, serving as a central distribution point for emergency food supplies.
