Patty and Alan Axelrod were longtime supporters of Hebrew Free Loan. Their legacy lives on through a generous bequest from their estate after Patty passed away in April 2023. (Alan predeceased her in 2000.) May their memories be a blessing.

“My dad grew up in San Francisco and was Hebrew Free Loan’s president in the early 90s. My mom met and married my dad after coming from Buffalo to begin a new life as a teacher. They both saw it as a mitzvah to offer people interest-free loans to get started in business.”  -Jill Dyal, daughter of Patricia & Alan Axelrod, z”l
