Messiah at the Foundling Hoepital (BBC).

Yep! It's a documentary, with many observations about Coram (and a lot about Handel, too!) --TS 21:17, 19 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

First incorporated charity[edit]

The current page says that the Foundling Hospital is "said to be the world's first incorporated charity". Surely this honour goes to The Corporation of the Sons of the Clergy (now the Clergy Support Trust) whose royal charter dates to 1678? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.159.239.141 (talk) 15:09, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever was the first incorporate charity, there should be a link to an article explaining what 'incorporated charity' means. --62.73.69.121 (talk) 20:30, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
