Donate your vehicle
The lack of access to a personal vehicle often prevents individuals from accessing employment opportunities and resources in areas with little public transit access.
Donate your vehicle or support a vehicle donation program to help those living below the NPPS obtain access to reliable, personal transportation.
To get started:
Identify programs that accept car donations.
Volunteer your time and expertise to programs that provide vehicles, help individuals obtain driver’s licenses, or assist with vehicle repairs.
Donate funds or make a tax-deductible vehicle donation.
