We loan because:
"The greatest level, is to support a fellow by endowing him with a gift or loan, or entering into a partnership with him, or finding employment for him, in order to strengthen his hand until he need no longer be dependent upon others." - Maimonides' Eight Levels of Charity -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If we donate only to Jewish causes or to individual Jews in need, we may stop seeing everyone as being equally created in God's image and therefore worthy of our help. After all, we are all members of one race, the human race." -- Rabbi Joseph Telushkin
About us:
