Explanation:

Freedman's Pauper Fund was created in 1865 by Congress. This was done mainly to help the former black slaves and some poor whites in the South which was known for its strong stance and support for slavery.

Slavery was abolished after the Civil Wars and the fund was created to help the black slaves settle down and enable it to be integrated back into the society.

This was to prevent having to use established whites money on black "indigents" which could have been burdensome for them.
