Vehicles for Vocations
“Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” –1 Thessalonians 5:11
Vehicles for Vocations provides the working low income with a grant to purchase a vehicle for reliable transportation. Getting to and from work, getting to school, running errands and taking kids to school can be difficult when a car is unavailable or unreliable. Qualifying participants may be eligible to receive a grant for a vehicle. Participant must apply, be approved based on the program criteria and be on a pathway to fulfill vocation goals and improve quality of life.
Upon approval, the recipient will be awarded up to a $3,500 grant for a vehicle. The recipient will need to pay back, in goodwill, half the grant amount to the NCCM Transformation Foundation based on their income abilities within a 24-month duration of time.
The Foundation will assist and guide applicants through the process.
