Partnership with PeopleJOY
Outstanding student loan debt has exploded over the past decade in the U.S., climbing to more than $1.6 trillion and becoming the second largest type of consumer debt after mortgages. We understand that many Cumberland Presbyterian ministers are burdened with student loan debt and now have a solution to help support you and your family. The PDMT has partnered with PeopleJOY, a financial wellness benefits organization that specializes in student loan repayment and forgiveness, to assist Cumberland Presbyterian ministers in the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program (PSLF). PeopleJOY will work directly with ministers and full-time church employees through the application process for PSLF and provide ongoing support and education for Cumberland Presbyterian ministers.
