Testimonials
Esther is a 76- year old divorced woman who lives on a disability income as the result of a degenerative bone disease. After receiving a $3,000 loan, she wrote to us saying: “I can never thank you enough for giving me the loan. I bought a bed to replace the one I had been sleeping on for 20 years. I invested in a vacuum that eliminates the dust that clogs my breathing and I bought a new TV. Being in the house 24/7 is not easy, but now it is a little more pleasurable.”
