Temple Beth El (Flint) Peter Remington is a Hebrew Free Loan donor and the founder of The Remington Group, Michigan's premier philanthropic consulting firm. "It is amazing to me the impact Hebrew Free Loan has on the Jewish community. When I talk to doctors, lawyers, accountants and other pro- fessionals, somewhere along the way Hebrew Free Loan helped them or someone they know. That is unprece- dented in the non-profit universe." Remington says HFL's success is based in staying true to its founders' mission. "114 years ago, Jewish business leaders banded together to create a fund so they could intervene in people's personal efforts to get ahead through a business loan, an education loan, or a home loan. It helped build this community." In today's economy Remington says it is vital for those who can donate to HFL do so now. "There is no more relevant agency today, and my concern is that the demands are now much greater than the resources. People need to give now." Your donation to Hebrew Free Loan will last for generations. Hebrew Free Loan provides interest- free loans for living expenses, medical fees and many other needs: small business start-up costs, tuition assistance ; summer camp, training, and much more.
