It’s our goal to offer hope to those in crisis—an opportunity to stop, take a breath and begin healing. We welcome applications directly from those in need, as well as from organizations or individuals who wish to nominate applicants.

Results: The Guaranteed Rate Foundation, which was established in 2012 to positively impact lives in times of crisis, has now granted more than $3.5 million to over 1,300 individuals. With 100 percent of overhead expenses covered by Guaranteed Rate, every penny donated to the Foundation goes directly to someone in desperate need of help. In 2019, the average Guaranteed Rate Foundation recipient receives $17,763 in forms of grants for rent, car payments, groceries or additional assistance.
