Protect O.U.R. Ecovillage Forever

From the beginning, the underlying dream of O.U.R. Ecovillage has been One United Resource. But because O.U.R. is such a unique place, it has never fit into a typical mortgage structure. To get around this conundrum, for the past decade a single mortgage has been held by O.U.R. executive director, Brandy Gallagher. It expires on February 28th, 2012. The only way to have the mortgage renewed is if more investors step forward.

The great news is, this challenge is really an opportunity: by raising $400,000 through a combination of investments and donations, we can qualify for a new and exciting model of true shared ownership. We have the chance, with your support, to move towards O.U.R. original dream…to transition to a jointly-owned, sustainable community resource.

If you’ve spent an hour or a season here, if O.U.R. has changed your life, if you believe that O.U.R. fills a vital model for sustainable communities… now is the time to give back.

Ways to help:

INVEST

Become a co-investor in O.U.R. land. Earn market-rate interest, and align your investment with your values. Choose either a) existing or new RRSPs, or b) other capital investments to be part of a third-party administered, land-backed syndicated mortgage. Phone 250-743-3067 or email protect@ourecovillage.org for details. Download a pdf with more info and some FAQ’s here.
