Hebrew Free Loan is a nonprofit based in San Francisco, Northern California, that provides interest-free loans to help Jewish individuals overcome financial challenges and pursue life goals. It also makes loans to non-Jewish residents in the region who meet criteria tied to Jewish community connections, such as being a student from a low-income home referred by a partner agency, an employee of a Jewish organization, or a business partner or immediate family member of a Jewish individual. Repayment of loans recycles the funds to support new loans, and the organization reports a repayment rate of over 99%. The organization operates within the nonprofit sector and serves the Northern California area with a model focused on sustainable lending. In 2025, Hebrew Free Loan of San Francisco, together with the Jewish Federation Bay Area, received the Synergy for Change Award at the Donor Advised Funds Giving Summit in Washington, DC, underscoring collaboration within the community.
