Jenna Leopold Shulman’s Message for Passover 2026
For our Passover holiday issue, we invited members of our staff and community to share their responses.
As Passover approaches, we’re reminded of a story about moving forward – overcoming barriers and stepping into new possibilities.
At the Jewish Educational Loan Fund (JELF), we see this every day. Students come to us with drive and potential, but the rising cost of education can stand in their way. JELF helps remove that barrier.
Through interest-free loans, we provide access to higher education – undergraduate, graduate, and vocational – without the added weight of interest. It’s not just about funding school; it’s about creating opportunity and allowing students to move forward with confidence.
As we gather for Passover, we’re reminded that progress often begins with opportunity – and that helping someone take that next step forward can change everything.
At JELF, we are proud to be part of that journey. Hope you all have a meaningful holiday.
Jenna Leopold Shulman is the Chief Executive Officer of Jewish Education Loan Fund.
