We loan because...
Giving a helping hand to people who are willing to work hard to help themselves is the right thing to do.

About us
We are families and friends who want to help individuals support themselves and their families.

We started in Dec. 2008 with one person who loaned $25. By the end of 2012 we had 37 members and we have loaned $7450! One person can do so much by spreading the word! Let's all enjoy watching the power of the ripple effect we are creating! Invite your family and friends to join Helping Hand.
