Since 1935, the Dallas Hebrew Free Loan Association (DHFLA) has provided life-changing loans to members of the Greater Dallas Jewish community. As a social lender, we care deeply about providing financial opportunity and creating financial security for couples, families, individuals and small businesses in the North Texas Jewish community through our interest-free loan programs. Rooted in Jewish Tradition: Our work of providing no interest loans to the Greater Dallas Jewish community is rooted in the Jewish tradition of Gemilut Chasadim, the giving of loving kindness, which sees helping people establish a financially secure future as the highest form of charity. Our zero interest loans not only provide hope and peace-of-mind through the relief of immediate financial strains, but they give borrowers the opportunity to meet their challenges with dignity. A Bridge to Financial Stability: The Dallas Hebrew Free Loan Association’s (DHFLA) affordable interest-free loans bridge the gap between need and achievement, fostering financial stability. DHFLA’s no interest loans ensure students can afford college and graduate school, small businesses remain vibrant, Jewish community members can cover emergency expenses, parents can afford the experiences that deepen their children’s Jewish identities, individuals can get the medical treatments to cure what ails them, families with special needs can give their loved one the support they need, couples can become parents, and more. Gifts that Continue Giving: DHFLA interest-free loans are funded entirely through community donations which continually recycle to others through loan repayments, creating many times the original value of the gift and supporting members of the Greater Dallas Jewish community in perpetuity.
