MORRIS DOBERNE CAMPER EXPERIENCE LOAN FUND
DAVID & LILLIAN ZERNER FAMILY DAY CAMP LOAN FUND

JFLA is thrilled to offer two loan programs that give children the opportunity to attend Jewish camps throughout Southern California. Established ten years ago, the Morris Doberne Camper Experience Loan Fund assists families with the costs of Jewish sleep-away camps, and the David & Lillian Zerner Family Day Camp Loan Fund was established to benefit families sending their children to Jewish day camps during the summer months, and during spring and winter breaks. JFLA offers interest-free loans of up to $2,000 per camper, per year. To date, JFLA has enabled almost 200 families to provide their children with unique camp experiences that will last a life-time. If your family or someone you know is in need of a campership loan, please contact Jordan Gill at (323)761-8830 or jordan@jfla.org.

NEWTON D. & ROCHELLE F. BECKER ISRAEL EXPERIENCE LOAN FUND

The Newton D. & Rochelle F. Becker Israel Experience Loan Fund was established over 10 years ago to allow youth and young adults from throughout Southern California to connect with their Jewish heritage by traveling to Israel on educational tours. A journey to Israel provides an invaluable experience in history, culture, religion, and current events. JFLA offers interest-free loans of up to $4,000 per student, with payments created on an individual basis. To date, almost $1 million in interest-free loans has been distributed to assist teenagers and young adults with the cost of organized Israel trips. If your family or someone you know is interested in an Israel Experience Loan, please contact Jordan Gill at 323-761-8830 or jordan@jfla.org.
