GOD HAS HIS REASONS

My name is Charmin and I am a Hurricane Katrina survivor. I had a job, a convertible, a residence, and a business idea that I was trying to sell to the local Wal-Mart when Katrina came through our city. I lost everything. I then boarded a bus that was going to Chicago, IL. Upon arrival the Mayor and his staff were there to help us with temporary housing.
One day I received a call stating that 1-800 Charity Cars, a nationwide 501©3 non-profit charity, was donating 100 vehicles to domestic violence survivors and victims of Hurricane Katrina in Chicago, IL. I was fortunate to receive a 1990 Mercury Sable, “Big Red”, which enabled me to regain my independence and motivation. Without 1-800 Charity Cars I would not be able to continue my dream to market my business idea of a new hair accessory that will be available this fall at Walgreen’s. Due to receiving the vehicle from 1-800 Charity Cars, I am now able to donate “Big Red” to someone less fortunate who has a “dream” to succeed as I did.

I want to express my joy

I would like to thank you for my 1993 Jeep Cherokee Wagoner. I am a mother of eleven children who was blessed to stay at home and take care of my family for 33 years, however, served with divorce papers changed my whole life. I was placed in survival mode and my faith increased and was put to a test. I love my jeep, I am very proud of my gift god sent to me through 1-800-Charity Cars. This is my first vehicle that is all mine. Thank you.

Bread of Life Ministries

Thank you for the 1996 Dodge Ram, we have already put it to good use. Within hours after we picked this vehicle up, we helped a mother and her baby daughter leaving a homeless shelter and move into her own apartment. This happened 2 days before Christmas and was their greatest gift. They were in the shelter over 90 days and she had left an abusive husband. This vehicle is helping clients to get to the soup kitchen, important meetings, health care appointments and allows for transportation in moving people into their own apartments and to transfer furniture to families in need.

People like you make the world a better place

Thank you so much for this donation of the 1998 Ford Escort that I received through Charity Cars. I has helped me get to appointments but mostly back & forth to work so that I can provide for my family. I am a single mother of 3 children & I can't tell you how happy they were when I drove it home. It has changed our lives tremendously. Thank you again.
