Homeward Bound
This collaborative venture between Choices Federal Credit Union and area not-for-profit housing developers will reward long-term tenants of affordable housing by giving them the opportunity to purchase the home in which they live. Participants will learn about the rights and responsibilities of home ownership and how to maintain their homes. New owners will receive ongoing post-closing support to help them succeed in what may be their greatest opportunity to escape the cycle of poverty.

DiscountGroove - Smarter Purchasing Decisions 
DiscountGroove will be used by the purchasing manager industry to determine the best discount rate available at any moment based on the size of the potential purchase. The data will be obtained by having purchasing managers enter recent purchases to obtain access to 3rd party recent purchases. For example if someone is about to buy $1,000,000+ in Microsoft software – would it be prudent to check the discount level against other recent $1,000,000+ Microsoft deals from other purchasing managers.

2-Way Micropay is the only micropayment platform that allows users to both spend and receive money. For example, new users don\'t have to pre-fund their accounts because they get paid every time they see an ad. They can then immediately buy music, video, or other online or mobile content (for pennies or dollars) with just two clicks.
Vendors eliminiate high credit card transactions costs and also receive far better marketing data on each customer.
Great benefits for all parties: consumers, advertisers, and publishers! Join our advertising and paid content revolution!
