English: Almshouses are charitable housing provided to enable people (typically elderly people who can no longer work to earn enough to pay rent) to live in a particular community. They are often targeted at the poor of a locality, at those from certain forms of previous employment, or their widows, and are generally maintained by a charity or the trustees of a bequest.

Español: Las casas de acogida (almshouses) son viviendas de caridad proporcionadas para permitir que las personas (generalmente personas mayores que ya no pueden trabajar para ganar lo suficiente para pagar el alquiler) vivan en una comunidad en particular. A menudo están dirigidos a los pobres de una localidad, a los de ciertas formas de empleo anterior, o a sus viudas, y generalmente son mantenidos por una organización benéfica o los fideicomisarios de un legado.
