The Asper Helping Hand Initiative, administered by Jewish Child
and Family Service, provides interest-free loans to people at every stage of life.

The program assists individuals and families in becoming or remaining self-supporting and valued members of the community through self-respect and dignity. A borrower must:
  • be experiencing temporary financial hardships
  • be a Jewish resident of Manitoba
  • be able to demonstrate a need for the loan
  • have the ability to repay it
  • provide qualified guarantors who are willing to co-sign
