Value for the Whole Community

Community Rewards: The Key to Success

Community Rewards are a way to recognize the achievements of EnVision App participants.

Via the EnVision App, users demonstrate their success on the path to self-sufficiency and economic prosperity.

Through the accomplishment of self-selected actions users accumulate “points” that they can redeem for a wide range of rewards.

Rewards take many forms from coupons and special event access to loans for personal transportation, home purchases, and small business start-ups.

Via EnVision, participants’ actions and accomplishments become a new form of collateral recognized by merchants, banks, employers, and others.

Bonus Points Through Verification

Earn Bonus Points!

When someone of authority verifies a participant’s accomplishments, it adds value.

To recognize that value, the EnVision App adds Bonus Points to participants’ account.

As points accumulate, they can be redeemed for a wide range of Community Rewards.

Build a Record of Accomplishment

One of the goals of EnVision is to help participants build a record of accomplishment that shows their progress toward self-sustainment.

The goal is for others – many others – to believe in participants and their aspirations and to help them with their needs.

By showing what they’ve done – and having it verified – participants quickly gain the trust, confidence, and support of community leaders and institutions.

There are two types of verification

Acknowledgements. When someone states that an event occurred. For example, a caseworker stating that a meeting actually occurred and was productive.

Certification copies. When someone provides a copy of an original document relating to an event. For instance, a school providing a copy of a certificate, report card, or diploma.
