Jelfies Natalie A.
JELF has helped me achieve my higher education. As a first generation college student, it’s so important for me to strive higher and create opportunities for myself that my parents didn’t receive. By obtaining my degree, I can continue on to represent immigrants in our justice system and help them get better opportunities.
College is hard enough without the burden of student loan debt.
College is getting more expensive
The average cost of college in the United States is $35K a year. This cost is only going to continue to grow.
Income rarely matches the cost.
31% of Jewish families have a household income of under $50K. The Jewish community is not immune to debt or hardship.
Average student loan debt is $30K
That's a problem! With student loan debt at an all time high, JELF is here to help!
