Estelle's campaign for Baltimore Urban League
Tax deductible
Want to join me in making a difference? We are raising money to benefit the Baltimore Urban League and its efforts to save the historic Orchard Street Church which is the organization's current headquarters. The Orchard Street Church dates its earliest history back to 1825. Truman Pratt, then a freeman, but born a slave in March of 1775 at Hild's Light near Hope Chapel, started a prayer meeting, most likely in a dwelling. The building itself was erected by slaves and black freedmen who worked by torchlight in the night. While its exact role is not certain, tunnels under the church we're long associated with the Underground Railroad.
