| 520 | |a In the Dutch Republic, charitable collections were regularly organized by both religious and secular authorities. This book examines the policies of church boards and town councils in organizing these charitable appeals, as well as the general population's giving behavior.

Not only did many relief institutions manage to collect large annual sums, but contributions came from across the socioeconomic spectrum. | ||
