However, I want to set myself up for success via passive income real estate streams as fast as possible so if I want to work less, want to travel more and work part time, do charity work, side businesses, etc., I will have the option to do so.

Looks like the program is not open yet, for applications.There are always private charities and some state programs that assist with rental payments, without the ERA program.Catholic Charities and Facing Forward just to name a couple.

Words like "honor" and "obligation" start getting pretty fuzzy when the money they spend isn't money they worked for (Section 8 vouchers, LIHEAP payments, SNAP foodstamps, disability payments, charity grant money). 

To be clear though, I’m not a charity and I make a profit on those rentals.

I know the Salvation Army picks up items and they're a great charity. 

If you want to be generous and have the means, donate to what you think is a good charity. 

I have my Charity and if they like to make a donation I am happy to engage with those folks.. but most folks on BP when you ask for a simple donation to a great charity in exchange for information they seek its crickets.. 

@Jeremy Hamel if cash for keys is not working, you can also see what charities/programs there are to help her pay her rent and point her in that direction.

This is not a charity program.

There has to be some way to overlap the two worlds of business and charity/kindness/etc, but it is likely more nuanced than we think when getting into REI.Perhaps the guardrail on the other side here is:  how do we become excellent at running our businesses as businesses without becoming jaded, cynical, and closed off to opportunities for kindness and service.It's a conundrum, but one worth hashing out and holding in tension.
