Operation Pay It Forward was formed to help our returning warriors overcome the injuries and demons they brought back with them from combat. Our goal is to introduce or reintroduce these veterans to the outdoors and the associated healing effects and comradery that comes with it. These soldiers are then given a new mission – to connect with their veteran brothers and sisters that need help and involve them in OPIF’s mission to “pay it forward” to their brothers and sisters in arms. “Our returning soldiers don’t deserve our pity or charity. These combat veterans are fighters and warriors. They deserve our appreciation and a path to transition back into civilian life. They deserve our help overcoming whatever physical or mental injuries they came home with a new mission to accomplish in their civilian life.” – Eric Pauly – Founder – OPIF.
