December 10 is Jane Addams Day. Why was Jane Addams so special? She spent her whole life helping other people.
Jane Addams and her friend rented a big house. They invited immigrants to live there. The house was called Hull House. It had a day care center. It had a gym. People there helped people find jobs. Hull House had classes. They even had a theater!
