Poorhouse

A poorhouse is a place where people who don't have enough money to take care of themselves live. It's like a big house, where people can stay for free and get some help, like food and a place to sleep.

Sometimes people lose their jobs, or they get sick, and they don't have anyone to help them. So they go to the poorhouse, where they can stay for a while until they can get back on their own two feet.

Overall, It is important to help those who are less fortunate and need assistance.
