Pay It Forward Networking

Pay It Forward Networking Non-profit organization committed to granting wishes through the power of networking for children with special needs. How It Works? We can! It’s easy and FREE.

Pay It Forward Networking Group
Helping the dreams and needs of children who are sick, facing a disability, or other adversities become a reality

Our Vision:
This idea was born after witnessing a day of generosity from friends, acquaintances and complete strangers coming together through networking to make a young man’s dreams come true while he continues his battle with Muscular Dystrophy. We al

l have contacts whether they are business or personal. Those people have contacts and so on and so forth. What if we could help children in need by simply networking with each other? Let’s say you know of a child facing an illness, disease or personal tragedy. Maybe this child is a huge sports fan and would love to go to his favorite college team’s home game but you don’t have the connections and/or finances to get him tickets. This is where Pay It Forward Networking comes in. You simply email us the child’s story and his want or need. We then send it out to our network of members to see if anyone has connections to help! It doesn’t have to necessarily be a trip, it could be as simple as movie passes or a nice dinner! There are no guarantees that a wish will be granted but generally people want to help other people - especially those in their community. How can you get involved? To grow this dream and to help the most kids possible, we need to grow our networking group! Simply send us your email address (or you can text payitforward to 42828) and you will receive alerts as needs are brought to us. You can then contact us if there is something you can help make happen. We also ask that as a member, when you see a new need posted, pass it along to all of your contacts – you never know who could possibly help! There are no meetings, no membership fees and zero spam mail! Quite simply, we are just the middle man passing along a child’s dream to those who can make it come true! As a new and growing “club” we welcome any ideas you may have to grow our network! For more information, please message us or email [email protected]. THANKS!

UPDATE 🚨 WISH GRANTED!!
Thank you to everyone that shared Elim’s wish and to those that donated!
We will need 3 volunteers to help set up (in benton, LA).

Meet 9 year old Elim who has autism and is nonverbal. He loves swinging, jumping, climbing and playing Minecraft. Elim has a 10 year old sister who also has autism and a 5 year little old sister.

Elim’s wish is to have a swing set at home.

Not only will a swingset meet his sensory needs, it will also provide endless fun for him and his sisters. And don’t all kids deserve a swingset?

Our goal is to raise $1500 for the swingset and if we raise more, we will throw in a trampoline!

Please share and donate if you can! Comment below if you would like to volunteer to help set it up!

READY, SET…PAY IT FORWARD!!

While we cannot guarantee all wishlists will be fulfilled, we do have members of our network that want to help Santa out a little this year and will get to as many as we can. 🎄 🎅

Our Venmo for donations is . It has come to our attention that someone has created a Venmo with our logo. We have reported it but it may take up to 10 days before it’s removed. So if you send a donation, please make sure it’s to correct account. Our Venmo does NOT have “-“ at the end.

Thank you for all that support PIFN and help grant wishes for children with special needs.

Meet adorable Maverick who has been diagnosed with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). We are only posting 1 of his 3 wishes today.

His wish is for a new car seat. We would also love to send his mom some gift cards to help with food/travel expenses.

This wish is being granted in loving memory of my aunt, Renee Rains who always loved and supported PIFN.

Ready…Set…Pay It Forward
