FINANCIAL PIGGY BACK THURSDAYS: The HUB Garage - The DV Walking Wounded

SOURCE: http://www.thehubgarage.org/

From the organization’s “ABOUT” page:

Being a single mom is one of the hardest jobs in the world. So we’ve made it our job to help her keep moving.

For these moms, a car isn’t just a means of transportation, it’s a lifeline. Without a working vehicle, she has no way to get to work, school, the doctor or the grocery.

That’s why we’ve built partnerships with automotive repair shops across the country to provide single moms with repair services at no charge. Providing these moms with a vehicle they can trust, puts them back in the driver’s seat and gives them and their family a fighting chance.

The HUB Garage has…

Repaired over 800 cars since they started
The average repair is $1890
Over $1,600,000 savings to single moms!

The HUB Garage partners with automotive service providers, so they can pay them directly. The public can donate one time or setup a monthly pledge to help single moms

This organization is starting a traveling fundraising campaign in 2024. It’s a VW Beetle made entirely out of coffee cups, to illustrate how for literally “pennies” that we spend on things we don’t really need, we can support this worthwhile organization.

Apply on their site if you are a single mom needing help OR if you’re a garage willing to participate!
