We have paired Bruce Swanson with Swanson & Associates 17 years of top producing real estate service, and Dr.Keith Ingram's 33 years in education in Cherokee County to develop Education First Fund (EF2) which is an initiative to support our children and local educators.
EF2 will make a $500 donation at the time of closing on a single home to any EF2 participating elementary school, middle school and high school {of a client’s choice}.
We designed this program to help alleviate the day to day struggles and supply demands at our local schools, and believe in sacrificing a little bit of our business to make a big impact in our local community.

Our mission is to support the education of our EF2 schools by donating to a participating school for every closing of a home- either bought or sold.
Here is how it works-Once we have closed on your house:
EF2 will donate $250 to a program of the principal's choice
+ A SECOND $250 donation will be made to
a classroom or program of our client’s choice
+ PLUS a THIRD $250 donation from Georgia Platinum Mortgage if a client were to choose them to close their loan (they're pretty amazing).
THAT MEANS if a client were to buy and sell a home (two closed transactions) with EF2 then you could earn up to
$1,250 for your EF2 school.
