DEVELOPMENT

CHARITIES FUNDING PARTNERSHIPS FOR AMERICA & CARES

partnering represents a revolutionary innovation in the development of expansive, expense free and sustainable donation funding for Charities & Nonprofit organizations within the United States.

Our CHARITY & CARES beginning

In the Fall 2012, my father and I began developing the concept & program designs that would serve as the foundation of our CHARITY & CARES partnering innovations. Our initial concept, VETERANS FIRST AMERICA, envisioned the development of a national charity that would focus on providing Veterans returning home after serving our nation, only to discover massive unemployment, with a pathway to professional employment, designed to assist them accomplish their most important mission, the support of their families.

VETERANS FIRST AMERICA was designed to assist returning Veterans develop the knowledge & training required for professional employment success during an intensive 15 day program. Our program innovation, would provide registered Veterans with a no cost Real Estate Education, Real Estate Agent Licensure and placement with Real Estate Brokerages & Corporations within their communities to receive 90 days of mentoring with experienced Realtor professionals.

However, once the design & structure of our program was completed, we sought out other private & public funding resources, discovering that developing funding was the primary problem that affects Charities & Nonprofit organizations.

Our review discovered a Nonprofit Community divided, between Legacy Charities & Nonprofit organizations with $$$ Millions in financial assets, to fund national & regional marketing campaigns, and Grassroot Charities & Nonprofit organizations, that represent the majority of registered nonprofit organizations in the United States, in constant need of funding, to develop & sustain their important missions, which were directed at helping those in need within local Communities.

The Funding problem we identified, presented a significant obstacle for people of good will,

that had developed important Charity & Nonprofit concepts, designed to assist those in need within their Communities.

A problem that required a Solution,

and my Father and I agreed to refocus our efforts on developing a funding development solution that would assist

those that strove to bring their important Charity & Nonprofit concepts to life.

Our Revised Mission

Design a Charity that would become the funding development resource for Charities & Nonprofit organizations,

that people of good will, with important concepts & programs designed to help their Communities,

could partner, develop & receive consistent, no expense grant funding.

However, life soon consumed our efforts;

first, dealing with my Father's illness and subsequent passing, then business; then family; and finally,

all too soon, my Mother's illness, care within her home, and passing.

During that time, I completed the first steps of the vision that we had shared

with the redesign & registration of VETERANS FIRST AMERICA as a 501 (C)(3) public charity in 2015

and the registration of CHARITIES FUNDING PARTNERSHIPS FOR AMERICA as a 501 (C)(3) public charity in 2016,

founded in honor of my family's dedication to service

developing a funding development resource

with the mission of providing no expense funding to Grassroot & Legacy Charities & Nonprofit Organizations.

At that point in our development, I had the Charities redesigned & established, their missions defined,

and a funding concept that I was certain could be reimagined & redesigned to provide the key features of the

funding development solution that we had envisioned

no cost donations & program directed financial grants
no cost partnering & donation development
consistent funding opportunities

borrowed & reimagined from 30 years of experience as a Real Estate Broker, designing, developing & managing real estate companies,

The key idea, was to use the traditional Real Estate client referral to provide Buyers & Sellers with opportunities to direct referral funding to support their preferred Charities, without any cost to them !

Designed and then redesigned, imagined and reimagined, then redesigned again, reviewing many methods of using Real Estate client referrals to develop funding for Charities ...

until one day I had it ! I had the solution ! and it was simple ...

GIVE THE BUYER & SELLER THE REFERRAL

and let them select the Realtor they prefer to assist them !

INNOVATION !

Buyers & Sellers could register with our Charity & CARES our nonprofit Real Estate partner, receive a CARES-Referrals © from the CARES Real Estate Broker, and then give the CARES-Referrals © to any Realtors the the Buyers & Sellers prefer to assist them with their Real Estate purchases or sales; for the Realtors to present to their Real Estate Companies & Real Estate Brokers for acceptance & signature, completing the referral & transfer of our Clients to their Real Estate Companies service.

COMPLETING THE REAL ESTATE BROKER TO REAL ESTATE BROKER TRANSACTION

A REQUIREMENT OF THE TRADITIONAL REFERRAL !

Program names were developed, identifying the program innovation

and the Communities our programs were designed to assist.

Now that our Charities, developed through years of design & redesign, until they were finally right;

had program names reflecting the community & cause that each Charity was designed assist,

are ready to be used by people of good will, that CARE.

REAL ESTATE REFERRALS

What is a Real Estate Referral ? and how does a CARES-Referral fund Charities ?

Many people would define, a Real Estate Referral, as the recommendation from a Realtor they know, of a Realtor

in another town, city or State where they are planning the purchase or sale of Real Estate.

The Realtor you know, who is making the recommendation is generally expected to have vetted the Realtor

for you, and their recommendation is made for your best interest.

Many people believe that the recommendation from the Realtor they know is without cost to them

transfer of a prospective Real Estate Buyer or Seller from one Realtor to another Realtor

The reason Realtors refer Buyers & Sellers to other Rea

Traditional Referral ealtors would receive traditional Client Referrals of Buyers & Sellers that were planning the purchase or sale of real estate within their communities, from referring Real Estate Brokers & Real Estate Companies, located in different towns, cities & States, to present to their Real Estate Brokers for acceptance, signature & return the Referral & client transfer agreement via email to the offices of the referring Real Estate Brokers.

The Client Referrals would contain the Names & Contact information of the registered Buyers & Sellers the referring Real Estate Brokers & Real Estate Companies were transferring to referred Real Estate Brokers & Real Estate Companies that served the communities the Buyers & Sellers were planning the purchases or sales of real estate, for their Realtors to contact, and provide them assistance with their purchase or sale of real estate.

The Client Referrals offered no opportunity for the Buyers & Sellers to select the Realtors they wanted to assist them with their purchases or sales of real estate as the Referrals & transfers of Clients were directed to specific Realtors and Real Estates Companies.

The Referrals would require referred Real Estate Brokers & Real Estate Companies remit 25% to 35% of any Commission received at the Closing of their referred & transferred Buyers & Sellers real estate transactions to the referring Real Estate Companies.

Once the referred & transferred Buyers & Sellers real estate transactions were closed, the contracted compensation, a percentage of the Commission received by our Real Estate Company, would be forwarded to the referring Real Estate Companies.

Buyers or Sellers register with our Charity & CARES our nonprofit real estate partner

Receive a CARES-Referrals © by email for them to give to any Realtor they select to assist then with their real estate purchase or sale

Present the CARES-Referrals © to their selected Realtor for signature of the Realtor's managing Real Estate Broker completing the traditional referral & transfer of registered real estate Buyers or Sellers.

The referred Real Estate Broker accepts the referral & transfer and emails a copy of the signed CARES-Referrals © to CARES, the referring Real Estate Broker.

Once the Buyers or Sellers real estate transactions are closed & completed the referred Real Estate Brokers send 20% of the Commissions they receive to CARES for donation of 90% of the referral funding to Charities.

REFERRAL FACTS:

Referrals are contracts between Real Estate Brokers, that transfer a registered client from one real estate broker to another real estate broker for compensation. Referrals provide the name & contact information of a Buyer or Seller of real estate, that is planning the purchase or sale of real estate outside of the referring Real Estate Broker's service area. Referrals are directed to Realtors & Real Estate Brokers in the area that the Buyer or Seller is planning the purchase or sale or real estate. Referrals require the referred Realtor & Real Estate Broker remit compensation to the referring Real Estate Broker equal to 25% to 35% of the Commission the referred Real Estate Broker receives from the referred Buyer's or Seller's purchase or sale of real estate.

In the CARES-Referral © Buyers & Sellers select the Realtors & Real Estate Companies they want to assist them with their purchase or sale of real estate. Our Buyers & Sellers are not offered FOR SALE as in the traditional real estate referral system, our Buyers & Sellers select the Realtor & Real Estate Company they prefer, and give the Realtors their referral that requires 25% of the Commission their selected Realtors & Real Estate Companies receive be remitted to fund Charities.

The Referral had NO EFFECT on the purchase or sales price of a property.

In the CARES-Referral © the Real Estate Company is required to remit 25% of the Commission that they receive at the closing or the real estate transaction, This has no effect on the purchase or sale price, because the Commissions are determined after the purchase or sales price has been negotiated by the Buyer and Seller with the assistance of their Realtors. The Commissions for the Realtors & Real Estate Companies involved in any purchase or sale of real estate are determined by the Closing Agency or Real Estate Attorney during the preparation of the closing documents for all parties of the real estate transaction.

The Referral Compensation is remitted after the referred Buyers or Sellers purchase or sale of real estate has been closed

CARES-Referrals © require 25% of the Commission; this is determined by the Sales price that had been negotiated by the Buyer and Seller with the assistance of their Realtors, and finalized by both parties of the purchase or sale at the Closing of the real estate transaction.

The Referral Compensation is a percentage of the actual Sales price of the property, generally between 20% to 35%

CARES-Referrals © require Real Estate Companies that receive our referrals remit 25% of the Commissions they receive at the closings, which is below the average referral cost that they would generally be required to remit.
