Temple Beth Emeth Heidi Press has spent her career as a media and communications specialist, working for newspapers, non-profits and in the healthcare arena. Like many of today's Hebrew Free Loan appli- cants, Heidi is a professional who never thought life's events would put her in need of financial help. "I had all of these things happen — my mom died, I had a serious health issue, then a car accident left me unable to work. Following that my dad passed away, and my benefits and insurance ran out," Heidi says. "These were rough times." Heidi decided to turn to Hebrew Free Loan. 'The agency helped me get my head above water," she says. Today, Heidi says she's found the best job of her life and she's grateful HFL lent her the money to help get her life back together. 'The agency treated me with respect and dignity," Heidi says. "It gave me help and hope." Your donation can make an enormous difference in the lives of others. Hebrew Free Loan provides inter free loans for living exp-enses, medical fees and many other needs: small business start-up costs, tuition assistance, summer camp, training, and much more.
