After-School All-Stars Partners With Loans4Love To Provide A Unique Giving Opportunity

Aug. 27, 2010 - PRLog -- Through a new partnership with Loans4Love, a socially responsible mortgage banking firm, the nation’s largest school-based after-school nonprofit organization, After-School All-Stars (ASAS), now provides the public and its supporters a new way to be philanthropic that combines the art of lending with the heart of giving.  When prospective homeowners purchase or refinance a new or existing home loan with Loans4Love, they will be able to donate 25 percent of their 1 percent origination fee to ASAS, thereby helping to provide free after-school programs for at-risk youth.  

“Loans4Love is a unique approach to giving,” said Teresa Chien, Director of Development of ASAS. “In tough economic times, people still want to be charitable and this partnership allows them to do that while they complete something they were going to do anyway.  Fifteen years ago, vehicle donation programs were a groundbreaking and successful way for people to give.  We believe Loans4Love will be the next revolutionary option.”

David Ludington, Loans4Love Founder and CEO, adds, “There is a real crisis in the life-changing challenges faced by too many of the young people in this country.  ASAS is one of the most prominent leading lights in creating a solution. Not only do we want to ensure the best financing to fit each personal situation, but we also want to have a direct, positive impact in the communities where our customers call home.”
