Erfan

My name is Erfan, and I reached out to JFLA in a time of urgent need, seeking support to keep my head above water. Being approved for a loan from JFLA has been an enormous blessing, lifting a very heavy weight off my shoulders. As a single mom of two teenagers, managing finances has been an ongoing challenge. Life's necessities—car repairs, taxes, gas, bills—keep piling up. Despite working a full-time job and two additional positions providing one-on-one support to students, making ends meet has been a struggle.

Recently, I was hit with the news that my property taxes have increased, resulting in a $400 rise in my mortgage payment. This unexpected expense came at a time when I was already stretched thin. I needed the loan to help pay off some debt and provide a financial cushion for the summer months. Unfortunately, my search for a summer job has been unsuccessful, leaving me with a six-week gap with no income.

The support, compassion, and understanding from JFLA have been nothing short of life-changing. With their help, I am able to pay off some of my debt and afford my increased mortgage payments over the summer. This loan has provided the stability I needed to navigate this difficult period and get back on track with my finances. JFLA's assistance has not only relieved my immediate financial stress but has also given me hope and confidence for the future. I am deeply grateful for their support and highly recommend their services to anyone in need.
