Eliza was planting a forest.
Her roots were deep.
Her branches wide.
She was strong.

Every since she was a young girl, Eliza Hamilton hoped to help people in need. From the private quarters of her family home to her national platform as Alexander Hamilton's partner, Eliza was a lifelong advocate for fairness, freedom, and faith.

Eliza planted countless seeds of learning when she started the Hamilton Free School and helped children grow their roots when she founded the New York Orphan Society. The remarkable acts of charity and public service she performed are considered a significant contribution to the Hamilton legacy the world celebrates today.

Here is a thoughtful account of an important woman who devoted her life to nurturing those in need.
