Recipient Results - Your Car Makes a Difference
Our 2003 study of 155 recipients revealed that owning a car has a significant impact on the earning ability of the individual and the lifestyle of the entire family. The study revealed 73% of Vehicles For Change (VFC) recipients obtained better jobs/promotions and increased their income by an average of $4,558. This increase gives families the opportunity to sell the donated car for more than what they paid and put money down on another car when ready.In terms of lifestyle, the changes are just as dramatic. Recipients of used car donations through VFC feel better about themselves, the independence they have gained and what they can do for their children. They are feeling healthier and less stressed. They are attending religious services on a regular basis, caring for aging family members and spending more time with family and friends. Most importantly their car has helped strengthen the family structure, an important key in reducing poverty. When you donate your car, children have more opportunities than ever. After school activities, sports and recreational programs are the most common. All customers stated they are now able to get their children to doctor's appointments and daycare.
