Mission: Established in 1996, Charity Cars provides a free vehicle and vehicle support services to assist disadvantaged families in their transition from dependency to self-sufficiency. The Charity Cars program provides a vehicle that has been refurbished to insure safety and reliability, and at times a license plate, the down-payment for insurance, a service warranty, and case management services to families willing to work. The National Car Donations System (NCDS) has the ability to process vehicle donations from anywhere in the country. Charity Cars is now in a position to assist other communities in the task of implementing a viable, responsive, accountable and cost-effective vehicle donations program. The Charity Cars program offers an indispensable solution to the critical transportation dilemma confronting States grappling with welfare reform. (Less)
