JIMF - Harmony for Jerusalem with Brahms · 12 June 2011 ·

The Jerusalem Interest-free Microfinance Fund is run jointly by Jews and Muslims in London and Jerusalem to alleviate poverty in Jerusalem through training and provision of micro-finance (loans etc.) for people from both communities wishing to start or expand small businesses who lack access to bank funding. The fund is compliant with both Islamic and Jewish law.
