The money received from charity contract sales and donations is used to buy shares in real estate investments. These investments pay dividends on a monthly or quarterly basis depending on which investment is purchased. We average about $0.60 earned in the three months time for every contract sold. At the end of three months, the shares purchased from the contract money are sold and the buyer is issued a full refund. The money earned from this process is pooled together to buy and keep investments. The money then earned from these permanent investments are the source for our charity pay out - making money for the people in our communities.
The core of our investments are in real estate. Modern creations of REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) and crowdfunding have made it possible to earn small amounts of income, in a short amount of time, with a small amount invested. Billions of dollars in real estate investments are carved up into small shares available for purchase and the income from those investments are paid out to each share. For example:
$10 million is raised by selling 100,000 shares at $100 each. The money raised is used to buy an apartment complex which profits $1 million/year after all management and expenses are paid. $1 million divided by 100,000 shares means each share gets paid $10/year, or about $0.83 per month. It doesn't seem like much when you only own one share, but it adds up when you own many. Invested Alternative uses borrowed money to temporarily buy shares like these to earn some change for three months, then sells the shares and refunds the charity contract buyer. The money gained from this and from permanent donations is used to buy shares to hold. The profit from those is paid out in charity.
