MBA Opens Doors Foundation Expands to Boston Children’s With Ongoing Commitment From radius financial

radius financial group, along with the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), has launched and fully supports the MBA Opens Doors Foundation

The MBA Opens Doors Foundation has established a new ongoing relationship with Boston Children’s Hospital, with help from a generous ongoing contribution from radius financial group. This is Opens Doors first involvement with a hospital located in Massachusetts.

Beginning Friday, April 1, 2016, for every residential home loan radius financial group closes, the company will donate a total of $100 to MBA Opens Doors Foundation. The Opens Doors Foundation makes mortgage and rental assistance payment grants to parents and guardians with critically ill or injured children, allowing them to take unpaid leave from work and spend precious time together without jeopardizing their cherished homes. Opens Doors is currently able to pass 100 percent of the donations it receives on to families in need of assistance. 

“Day in and day out, we are constantly challenging ourselves to make the mortgage experience better—better for us, better for the homebuyer, better for the communities we serve,” said radius financial group Principal Sarah Valentini. “We heard about the opportunity to bring Opens Doors to Massachusetts and the decision to assist in every way imaginable was unanimous. We’re honored to help the Mortgage Bankers Association bring the program not only to Massachusetts, but to the #1 ranked children’s hospital in the world.”

“Not only are we helping with homeownership, but we get to show and share with our clients how they can also touch someone in a time of need,” said radius financial group COO and Principal Keith Polaski. “That’s why we do what we do at radius financial group.”

The MBA Opens Doors Foundation seeks to aid, nurture and empower people and communities by developing and supporting programs that promote and defend sustainable homes for American families. The Foundation’s first initiative makes mortgage and rental assistance payment grants to parents and guardians with critically ill or injured children, allowing them to take unpaid leave from work and spend precious time together without jeopardizing their cherished homes.

“This creative, generous, ongoing initiative makes it possible for Opens Doors to expand,” said Debra Still, Foundation chairman, and president and CEO of Pulte Mortgage. “We thank, Sarah, Keith, and the entire team at radius for their leadership and we are honored to be able to start a new relationship with Boston Children’s and provide assistance to families caring for ill or injured children there.”
