The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption is a nonprofit 501(c)3 public charity dedicated to dramatically increasing the adoptions of the more than 140,000 children in North America's foster care systems waiting to be adopted. Created by Wendy's founder, Dave Thomas, who was adopted as a child, the Foundation spearheads programs such as Wendy's Wonderful Kids, which puts adoption recruiters in 50 states and Canada to find permanent, loving families for children in the foster care system, and Adoption-Friendly Workplace, which encourages employers to offer adoption benefits to their employees. The Foundation also works with adoption advocates and officials to streamline the adoption process and make adoption more affordable for families.

Advertised rates include a .25% rate discount for home equity lines secured by AZ, CO, CT, IL, IN, KY, LA, MI, NJ, NY, OH, OK, TX, UT, WV, or WI collateral. Rate discount requires a new or existing Chase personal checking account, and is good only on new home equity lines. Rate discount cannot be combined with any other offer. Lifetime APR will not exceed 21%. All stated rate ranges apply to lines secured by owner-occupied, single family (includes townhomes and rowhomes) collateral. Florida condominiums are not currently accepted as collateral. Ask us about our collateral and combined-loan-to-value (CLTV) ratio requirements to be eligible for these rates. The product requires an origination fee of $399, which may be financed (for TX homestead properties, the origination fee may not be financed). Property insurance is required; if the collateral is determined to be in an area having special flood hazards, flood insurance will be required as well. You may obtain advances during the first 10 years of the line (9 years and 10 months in CT) (the ?Draw Period?). Depending upon your credit profile, your minimum payment during the Draw Period will be either (a) the accrued interest for each month, or (b) the greatest of the accrued interest for each month, 1% of the outstanding balance, or $100. Your payment will include principal and interest in the subsequent 20-year repayment period (20 years and 2 months in CT). While making interest-only payments, principal is not reduced. At the end of this period, even if the interest rate stays the same, your monthly payment will increase, possibly substantially, because you will be required to pay down the outstanding principal. Always consider paying more than the minimum payment to pay down the principal. The Best Rate Line of Credit may not be used to purchase the property being used as collateral, and is not available in AK, HI, or SC. Borrower is responsible for a $50 annual fee after the first year, except for TX Homestead properties. If you close your line of credit within 36 months of the date upon which it is opened, you will be required to pay an early account closure fee, equal to the lesser of 1% of the line amount, or $400 (except in FL, GA, KS, MD, MN, NC, NY, VA, TX Homestead, and Orleans Parish of LA). In AL, FL, GA, KS, the Orleans Parish of LA, MD, MN, NY, OK, TN and VA only, you will be required to pay for City/County/State Taxes and Stamps estimated to be $10-$6,650 ($375-$10,845 in NY), which may also be financed. The No Closing Cost Line of Credit features variable rates based on the Prime Rate (as published in The Wall Street Journal).
