The time of the First World War was not easy for Łódź. The destruction due to Łódź Operation was accompanied by economic issues caused by the crash of potential customers market. It lead to the pauperization of city dwellers. The clergy of the Roman Catholic Church got involved in aid activities organized by the city authorities or they initiated similar activities themselves. At the parishes they organized on a large scale: cheap kitchens, children’s shelters and distributed basic necessary goods. A unique phenomenon in Europe is the activity of St Stanislaus Kostka Shelters Association which arranged a widespread aid and ran shelters for orphans, nursing homes for adults, shelters for children and the only nursery for orphans in Łódź as well as a school for deaf and dumb.
