Historical context
This medal belongs to the Junta Directiva de Beneficencia de Puebla, one of the bodies that in the 19th and 20th centuries administered hospitals, asylums, and social-assistance works. Public charity was a pillar of care for the most needy before the modern systems of health and social security.
These charitable boards and societies struck medals to recognize their benefactors, honor collaborators, or commemorate institutional events. The piece reflects the organization of charity and assistance in the city of Puebla.
Cataloged by Grove among the merit pieces and struck in bronze by the engraver Peña, it has no recorded year. Its value lies in documenting the history of social assistance in Puebla and the recognition of those who took part in it.
