Donate a car. Change a life!

Good News Garage, LSS, Inc. is a non-profit social enterprise car donation program featured on NBC's Today Show and in People Magazine. GNG's mission is to provide safe, reliable and affordable transportation options to individuals and families in need to be used as a Wheels To Work tool to access employment and job training.
 
Unlike the vast majority of car donation charity programs, the goal of Good News Garage is to repair as many donated cars as possible in order to offer them to low-income individuals in need of transportation.

The inspiration for Good News Garage was sparked by Hal Colston, GNG's visionary founder, in Burlington, Vermont in 1996. Working in partnership, Colston and Lutheran Social Services (LSS) established Good News Garage with a start-up grant from the Wheat Ridge Foundation. Since that time, GNG has expanded and grown into Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island.

Good News Garage tows donated cars free of charge and has car donation drop-off locations throughout New England (CT, MA, NH, RI and VT). For state-specific information, please visit our locations pages.

You may donate your car online, call Good News Garage, toll-free, at 877.GIVE.AUTO (877.448.3288). All vehicle donations are eligible for a tax deduction, with some qualifying for the highest tax deduction allowable under IRS regulations. To learn more, please visit our "tax advantage" page.

Good News Garage's unique mission and unparalleled success have captured the attention and support of audiences nation-wide. GNG and founding director, Hal Colston, have been featured in the major media, including: the "CBS Evening News" and "NBC Nightly News", the "Today" show, NPR's "All Thing's Considered", People Magazine, Reader's Digest, Smithsonian Magazine and most recently, "The Oprah Winfrey Show - An Oprah/People Magazine Exclusive: Heroes in Hard Times" on May 19, 2009. In 1998, Good News Garage was awarded special recognition from The Peter F. Drucker Foundation for Nonprofit Management.
