The ClubZERO Social Impact Funds™
Support The Mission. Support Yourself.
Simone, our VP of AI Media Presentations shares details about ClubZERO's Social Impact Funding for their core three non-profits projects.
“A mission begins with a purpose.
Its future grows with the people who believe in it.
Give them a way to support the mission
while supporting themselves, and together you can turn
one seed of hope into a forest of change.”
Peter “The AngelPreneur” Ortmann.
Turning Unaffiliated Membership Activity
Into An Earned Funding Opportunity for the Social Good
ClubZERO Rewards was designed around a simple idea:
economic activity can create value in more than one direction.
Thousands—and eventually potentially millions—of people may discover ClubZERO through our members, Partner Affiliates, businesses, nonprofit partners and other organizations. When they enter ClubZERO through a properly tracked referral link, we recognize the individual or organization responsible for making that introduction.
But what happens when someone discovers ClubZERO
on their own, without being invited by one of our Affiliates?
Well here is the answer.
When someone hears about ClubZERO by way of the Agentis Pulse podcast, an article or feature from a news organization or they discovered one of our songs. Maybe they found us through social media, a search engine, or simply typed ClubZERORewards.com into their browser.
In either case there is no referring affiliate. So who gets the credit for the referral?
Great question! We believe that economic opportunity should still create value.
That is why we are developing ClubZERO's Social Impact Allocation Program.
When a new member enters the ClubZERO membership funnel without an attributable Partner Affiliate or other recognized referral source, that member will be allocated among three designated social-impact organizations:
OUR OCEANS
Clear Blue Oceans Foundation
OUR COMMUNITIES
CommunityHUB Development Fund
OUR RESPONSE
ClubZERO Natural Disaster Assistance Fund
Unaffiliated members will be distributed among these three organizations through an established allocation process. When qualifying ClubZERO activity associated with those accounts subsequently generates earnings, those earnings can help fund the respective organization's operations, programs and asset acquisitions.
THIS IS NOT A DONATION PROGRAM
No donation is being requested or made through this program.
Members do not receive a charitable tax deduction as a result of being allocated to one of these organizations, and ClubZERO does not characterize these allocations as charitable contributions.
Instead, the participating organizations earn funding through qualifying economic activity generated within the ClubZERO ecosystem.It's the same fundamental principle behind the ClubZERO Partner Affiliate model:
Create the introduction. Generate economic activity. Earn recurring value.
The difference is that when there is no individual or outside organization responsible for the member introduction, ClubZERO can put that economic opportunity to work for the social good.
No Donation. No Tax Deduction. Earned Impact Funding.
Ocean & Environmental Issues
CLEAR BLUE OCEANS FOUNDATION
Protecting What Connects Us All
Clear Blue Oceans Foundation is the established ocean-focused nonprofit within the broader APVG ecosystem, created to promote ocean awareness, education and initiatives designed to help protect our oceans and marine environments for future generations.
Its developing initiatives include Marissa's Reef for Heavenly Helpers, ocean-awareness programs and collaborations intended to connect individuals, businesses and organizations with the importance of protecting one of the planet's most valuable resources.
Through the ClubZERO Social Impact Allocation Program, CBO Foundation can be assigned qualifying unaffiliated ClubZERO members and earn funding from subsequent qualifying membership activity associated with those accounts.
Those earnings can support CBO Foundation's operations and developing ocean-related programs without requiring the member to make a donation.
The member receives the benefits of ClubZERO.
The Foundation earns support for its mission.
Our oceans gain another economic engine working on their behalf.
SUPPORT THE MISSION. SUPPORT YOURSELF.™
Our CommunityHUBS Fund
COMMUNITYHUB DEVELOPMENT FUND
Temporary Housing for Communities That Need It
The CommunityHUB Development Fund is being developed to turn recurring economic activity within the ClubZERO ecosystem into something tangible: community facilities designed to assist those seeking secure and safe shelter after a job loss, the impact of economic conditions that force many to live on the streets to survive.
Depending upon the community and location, these facilities incorporate safe and secure environment, job search assistance, food-support programs, access to essential human needs, resources and medical services delivered directly in collaboration with qualified community organizations and operating partners. They are transitional housing designed to assist working homeless individuals and displaced families who are made temporarily homeless get back on their feet with minimal impact.
A rough rendering of the design concept is shown below. It comprises two 60,000 SQ FT metal buildings with a central courtyard with a pool, BBQ area, and playground. It's not ideal housing, but a mix of spaces that allow for tents, plus cabins within the building, each with a thrift store, water-making, ice, full laundry and internet facilities, a community kitchen and social gathering room. The goal is to make those suffering from life's challenges feel more secure and connected.
Rather than depending exclusively upon conventional fundraising, the CommunityHUB Development Fund can earn funding through qualifying ClubZERO membership activity assigned to its account.Those earnings can help support planning, property acquisition or site development, construction, equipment, operations and the continued expansion of the CommunityHUB network.
As the program develops, ClubZERO can also work with experienced nonprofit organizations, community leaders and other qualified partners to help determine where CommunityHUBS are needed and how individual facilities can best serve their communities.
One member can inspire another. And one community can create meaningful recurring impact.
COMMUNITYHUBS ARE ABOUT MORE THAN ASSISTANCE.
They are about creating permanent infrastructure that can help communities address needs today while building opportunities for tomorrow.
CommunityHUBS create permanent infrastructure for communities in need.
SUPPORT THE MISSION. SUPPORT YOURSELF.™
Our Disaster Response Fund
CLUBZERO DISASTER ASSISTANCE FUND
Building the Resources Before Disaster Strikes.
When a major hurricane, flood, tornado, wildfire, earthquake or other disaster strikes, communities can suddenly lose access to some of life's most basic necessities. The ClubZERO Disaster Assistance Fund is being developed to help create and maintain physical resources that can be deployed when communities suddenly need them.
A centerpiece of this strategy is the developing ClubZERO ReliefHUB program. Working with Specialty Metal Works, an APVG Company in development, and other participating providers, the Fund's objective is to use earned funding to help acquire, equip, maintain, stage and ultimately deploy modular ReliefHUB units to disaster-affected communities.
Depending upon final configuration, the goal is to modify shipping containers that can be shipped anywhere, and assembled onsite where needed. ReliefHUBs would be pre-fabricated and stored in numbers and made ready for immediate deployment to a disaster-stricken area when needed. They will offer capabilities that will include essential services lost and needed such as:
-
Clean flushing toilets and sanitation facilities
-
Hot showers
-
Potable drinking water
-
Ice production
-
Electrical power and EV charging systems
-
Starlink-enabled communications and internet access
-
Other essential post-disaster support capabilities
Rather than waiting until a disaster occurs to begin looking for resources, the long-term objective is to establish a growing network of ReliefHUB assets that can be positioned and prepared for deployment when they are needed.
The ClubZERO Disaster Assistance Fund earns funding through qualifying ClubZERO membership activity assigned to its account, creating an ongoing economic mechanism to support operations and ReliefHUB acquisition. Disaster supplies such as blankets, tents, coats, and first aid supplies, food and medical supplies.
ReliefHUBS provide deployable infrastructure for communities suddenly in need.
SUPPORT THE MISSION. SUPPORT YOURSELF.™
Three Missions. One Economic Engine
The funding approach outlined through this program is unique and was developed to help fund socially-driven programs that might not otherwise find traditional donors in a difficult economy. Although each of the allocation targets will be independently operated, all are part of the APVG/ClubZERO Ecosystem. It makes use of the members joining ClubZERO without a member invitation.
-
Some ClubZERO members will arrive through Partner Affiliates.
-
Some will arrive through participating businesses.
-
Some will arrive through nonprofit and community Impact Partners.
-
And some will simply find us.
Those unaffiliated relationships have hidden value.
Through the ClubZERO Social Impact Allocation Program, qualifying unaffiliated membership activity can create earned funding supporting:
-
Our Oceans.
-
Our Communities.
-
Our Response When Disaster Strikes.
No donation is required. No charitable tax deduction is created.
Instead, we're taking economic value already created within the ClubZERO ecosystem and designing a system that can put more of it to work.
A Membership Where Its Members Come Together To Help Solve Real Issues That Matter.
