PCS Pay-it-Forward® is a FREE program for military families committed to creating a smooth transition from one duty station to another by increasing access to resources and support.
Our mission is to eliminate the need for interim housing and reduce the number of families falling victim to sight unseen rental scams on their PCS Move.
Started in 2018, PCS Pay-It-Forward® has grown to serve over 66 military communities and provide support to over 20,000 military members nationwide.
One of my goals to join PCS Pay-It-Forward for Fort Belvoir besides Paying it Forward for veterans is to accelerate my goal of giving back over $One Million Dollars to military members and veterans I serve. I love supporting veterans and encouraging them to begin accumulating wealth by purchasing their first home when they can.
I have used this platform to help provide education on the rental and purchase process, as well as help match members that are inbound with outbound members looking to either rent their property or help their landlord find another military family to replace them.
