True Relief with U.S. Taxes: T.R.U.S.T.

The T.R.U.S.T. Initiative is made up of students, staff, and faculty at the University of Georgia and community members of Athens.

Our aim is to help create a community-based lending fund. This fund will provide low-interest loans to at risk communities who are vulnerable to rising property values and increasing development pressure.

Supporting this fund will make a difference for individuals and families and is a statement in support of the diversity and integrity of our communities. It may also serve to minimize the environmental damage of high impact development projects.

We invite you to join us in making a statement and a difference. The suggested contribution is the amount of your "Tax Relief for America's Workers" check. All contributions are welcome.
