| Car Donation Ministry
The CARE Center has launched a new ministry to help overcome the barrier of transportation for families in need. A vehicle can open so many doors for employment, child care, a nd other daily needs. Often it's the missing piece that makes all the difference in reaching self-sufficiency. We accept any working vehicles and sell them for a tenth of the blue book price to uphold the dignity of our neighbors. The donor then receives the blue book value in a tax credit.
