Jewish Agency to give money to southern businesses

The Jewish Agency will give up to NIS 100,000  loans to businesses harmed by the kite terrorism and rockets fired from Gaza.

The agency said the loans which would be given under preferable conditions and through quick procedures are meant to aid small and medium businesses in the Gaza border communities whose operation had been harmed by the security situation in the south.

The financial aid will come from the Ness Foundation which receives its funding from the Jewish Federation of Greater MetroWest and Greater Miami Jewish Federation.
