Everybody needs a team.

And you probably already have one – parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, neighbors, coaches, church folks, or teachers who look out for you. But what if that team was bigger – a lot bigger – and they checked in on you to see how things are going and how they can help? That’s Backrs.

You’re probably wondering, “Why would this team of people want to invest in me?” Our response is, “Why wouldn’t they?!” You won’t ever be expected to pay anything back, though you can always pay it forward - first, by sharing regular updates about your progress. And second, maybe even backing someone else down the road.
