                  and Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) to allow bona-

                  table donations and  are making  zero percent interest mortgage
                  loans-to  choose whether to use the truth in lending (TIL), good

                  tection (Bureau) issued the TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure
                  (TRID) Final Rule that requires mortgage lenders to use more eas-
                  ily understood and  streamlined mortgage  disclosure forms. The
                  TRID  Rule applies to most closed-end consumer mortgages. It does
                  not apply to home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), reverse mort-
                  gages, or mortgages secured by a mobile home  or by a dwelling
