SUPPORTERS OF HUGH’S ROOM LIVE
Our Mortgagees
We purchased 296 Broadview in early July, 2023 without any support from government, and without any conventional financing.
Instead, our financing came from people who knew us, shared our vision, and were willing to trust that we could succeed.
They are:
Dr. Dan Perlitz
He called on a Sunday evening in mid-June, saying he loved Hugh’s Room and wanted to help. He provided $1.3M
Marina Stefanovic
Our vendor, who had always wanted the building to be a music centre. In mid-June, she called, offering a $500K vendor-take-back mortgage.
Broadview Faith Centre
The congregation that conducts worship services in the building on Sundays. They agreed to lend us $700K interest free, in return for use of the building for their worship.
Our Bondholders
The following are our bondholders who, collectively, bought $1.3M of Hugh’s Bonds.
