Volunteer roles
- Mechanics and shops: inspect and repair donated cars.

- Community advocates: share Free Car Help with families, churches and agencies.
Why volunteer with Free Car Help?
For many families, a reliable car is the difference between keeping a job and losing it. Volunteers multiply what a small nonprofit can do: a mechanic who donates a Saturday can make a donated car safe for a working parent, and a researcher who updates program listings can help hundreds of people find help in their state.
Skills we especially need
- ASE-certified or experienced mechanics and body shop technicians
- Bilingual volunteers (especially Spanish) to help applicants
- Social workers and caseworkers who can review applications
- Writers and researchers to keep our blog and state pages accurate
- Churches and groups willing to host car care days
Remote volunteering
Many roles can be done from home, including program research, application follow-up and outreach to local agencies.
