What the platform does.

1.0: From the evidence to the keys (2026-09-28)

The evidence

The six evidence pages, with every figure sourced and tested: a typical home that took 27.7% of a median worker's pay in January 2020 takes 49.1% today, a gap of $1,158 a month.

Places

Eighteen established towns on the North Shore, in Park Ridge, Hinsdale and the near-west suburbs, each with its typical home, trains, schools and the payment gap job by job, refreshed monthly from public data.

Homes

Homes in those towns with two payments each: the market payment, and the payment with the fund's recoverable assistance. Illustrative examples are labelled until partner listings arrive.

Homebuyer accounts

A household profile, a readiness score with the next three steps, a personal plan on the site's own method, saved towns and homes, and messages with the team.

Applications

A short application with autosave, private document upload, a clear status at every stage, agreements signed online, and funds that move only after two people approve. Applications open once the foundation's counsel signs off.

Giving

Gifts in USDC, bitcoin or ether on Base, confirmed from the chain within minutes; card and bank giving, once or monthly, ready to switch on. Every gift reaches the public ledger without a name.

Sponsor accounts

Dashboards with lifetime giving, levels, towns, statements and monthly gifts; gifts attach only with proof of the giver.

Transparency

The ledger in public: received, committed, paid out, recycled, operating costs and fees, monthly closes that never change, and each home the fund helped buy against its town's typical price.

Trust

Passwordless sign-in and passkeys, private documents behind short-lived links, a strict content security policy, nightly backups with tested restores, and alerts on errors, backlogs and failed payments.
