1-800-CHARITY CARS, a national non-profit which provides free donated vehicles to struggling families has been inundated with requests from donors across the nation directing the charity to provide their donated cars to victims of Hurricane Katrina. Additionally, 1-800-CHARITY CARS is receiving requests from victims and volunteers desperate to receive a free vehicle so that they can begin to rebuild their lives. The charity expects requests for free vehicles to number in the thousands. "Owning a vehicle may be the most important ingredient in being able to overcome their present circumstances," stated Brian Menzies, President of 1-800-CHARITY CARS. "A free vehicle would literally change these folks lives." The organization is seeking partners from the automobile industry to assist it with repairs and with transporting the donated vehicles to the struggling victims. In addition to the repairs and transport costs, the organization is seeking funds needed to provide the down payments for insurance, tag, registration and title fees.
