This Rent to Own Video brought to you by APRO's RTOHQ.org


Jonathan Brown received the rent-to-own industry’s highest award for store level employees for his community involvement efforts and his dedication to his family. Brown’s efforts as a young adult and high school student through the Upward Bound program and his role in supporting his grandparents as they raised him and his siblings distinguishes Brown as an individual who goes above and beyond his job to help his community and family. Brown’s Upward Bound involvement exemplifies his academic achievement but also emphasizes his leadership traits as he mentors other students and contributes to such causes as Adopt-A-Highway, the Red Cross, blood and food donation campaigns and local nursing homes. Brown was named “Mr. Upward Bound” because of his leadership traits and contributions. Brown continued his leadership and mentoring through his employment at BestWay Rent-to-Own in Tappahannock, Virginia. In just one year, Brown was named the company’s employee of the year then was nominated to also receive the national industry’s employee of the year award.
