Hanna: "I am a young single mother. The ‘JumpStart’ loan has been very helpful for me. It has allowed me to do my chosen TAFE course so that I can return to work. Jewish Care has been fantastic to deal with. They are discreet, and they have offered me very favorable repayment terms over an extended period. There are no charges and I pay no interest on the loan...."
