Pay It Forward used to be a built-in way to give back. Now, you can choose to give back by lending a hand to the next Free Agent.   If you’ve done time, you might remember — when you first got in, someone usually looked out. Gave you soap, food, whatever you needed. This is that same spirit. A way for FreeWorld Graduates to show up for the next one coming through the program. You’ve done the work. Now you’ve got the chance to help someone else get through it too. You can Pay It Forward with monthly donations or one-time gifts to help future Free Agents get birth certificates, Uber rides to class or the DMV to take their CDL test, or even help with housing costs and living expenses while in the program.  And yeah — it’s tax-deductible. That means you can subtract what you give from your income when you file taxes, which might help you owe less. We’ll send you a receipt right after you donate. Here’s a quick video from O'Neal Heard, our Career Services Manager and former Free Agent, about how Pay It Forward works. Want to help every month? Choose a monthly amount below, or add your own.   $10/month covers DMV fees — like printing a CDL permit or issuing a temp license — for one Free Agent each month. The little paperwork costs add up, and this helps keep things moving. $20/month covers a birth certificate for a new Free Agent every month. $50/month helps one Free Agent get to class or the DMV each month with a paid Uber ride. Not ready to give monthly? A one-time gift makes a huge difference for a Free Agent. $75 covers CDL testing fees — including the permit and final exam. $100 pays for a DOT physical so a Free Agent can start training. $200 helps a Free Agent cover rent while they’re in trucking school. $375 provides a full week of living support — housing, food, and transportation while a student trains full-time. "You showed me I don't have to settle for some bottom of the barrel existence.... You met me where I was at and gave me a hand... Now it's my turn to pay it forward just as it was to me!" —FreeWorld Graduate We’re building something bigger than one program. And it’s because Free Agents like you keep carrying it forward. Questions? Contact nick@freeworld.org FreeWorld is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, so when you donate, you can report that amount when you file your taxes. This could reduce your taxable income. Right after you give, we’ll email you a receipt with everything you need to keep for your records.
