Gift Card Distribution Programs

Programs that distribute gift cards that are redeemable for goods or services to people who need financial assistance. Included are gift cards that can be redeemed at specific retail stores, grocery stores, restaurants and gas stations as well as prepaid phone cards and debit cards issued by banks. Most of the gift cards distributed in this manner have been donated.

Personal Loans

Programs that provide interest free, low interest or market interest rate loans for people who do not have the credit or the income to secure loans on the conventional loan market.

Service Cost Payment Assistance

Programs that provide financial assistance for the express purpose of helping people pay for necessary supportive services in situations where they cannot otherwise obtain them. Programs that purchase services for individuals as a component of case management are not included.

Undesignated Temporary Financial Assistance

Programs that provide cash, vouchers or other forms of monetary aid for people in need of assistance and evaluate the individual's or family's need for the money on a case-by-case basis rather than having pre-established policies regarding the types of needs the dollars can be used to cover.
