The document proposes a partnership between a nonprofit, donors, and a green home developer (Simcoe Green Homes) to generate income for all parties. Donors would invest in the developer's projects rather than donate, tapping into their larger investment funds. The developer would use these funds to build green homes. Profits would then be shared between the nonprofit, donor, and developer according to a predetermined split. This allows the nonprofit to access more funding, donors to earn returns on their investment while supporting a cause, and the developer to increase profits and support the nonprofit.

1. The
Philanthropy Investment
Plan

2. The Pitch
Build healthy green communities that generate income
for the Non-Profit, the Donor and Simcoe Green Homes.

3. The Players
The Non-Profit (NP).
The Donor.
The Developer - Simcoe Green Homes.

4. The Non-Profit Challenge
Fundraising is crucial to stay in business.
Fundraising is time and labor intensive.
Average funds raised (under $100) require many donors and staff
hours to generate.
Little ability to forecast future financials within this model.
Time spent fundraising is time spent away from core mission.

5. The Donor ‘Problem’
Donations and gifts only satisfy one requirement of donors, the “Do
good, feel good” requirement.
Donors typically view donations as coming out of their “Charitable
Giving” bucket only which is usually a fixed amount per year.
Donors are asked for money constantly. The more non-profits they
support, the less money given to each non-profit.

9. Change the Game
Have Donors ‘invest’ rather than donate.
Tap into their 60% investment pool.
Separate NP from every other non-profit looking for money.

10. The Partnership
Donor invests with NP in real estate through SGH.
Donor provides the capital, SGH develops and sells the project.
Profit splits (NP, Donor, SGH) are pre-determined prior to the deal.

11. Profit Projections
8-12% annually at a minimum.
That typically beats:
Bank rates
CD rates.
Bonds.

12. Donor Benefits
Gain higher returns while supporting a cause they already believe in.
Portfolio diversification (unlikely they already invest in green real
estate).
Take advantage of the emerging trend in healthy green homes
market.

13. Structure
Donor
NP
New LLC
SGH

14. Process Flow
Donor invests capital into new LLC (jointly owned by NP, Donor and
SGH).
SGH uses capital on a specific development project.
LLC receives profit from development sales and disburses profits
between Donor, NP and SGH.
Rinse and repeat.

15. Financials
Donor receives: Capital return + Percentage of Profits.
Non-Profit receives: Percentage of Profits.
SGH receives: Percentage of Profits.
