Repair Shops
Local auto repair facilities help keep repair work affordable, so that as donations and donated resources become available, assistance can potentially be arranged directly with them. They're the backbone of our program — helping turn community support into working vehicles.
Businesses
Local businesses support our mission through financial contributions, in-kind donations, and by spreading the word to employees and customers.
Community Organizations
Nonprofits, churches, and community groups help us identify people who need assistance and connect us with resources and volunteers.
Individual Donors
Every contribution — whether a one-time gift or a recurring donation — supports vehicle repair assistance that helps keep Lane County residents employed and moving forward.
What you can do to become a community partner
We're actively building partnerships throughout Lane County. Here's how your business or organization can get involved and help keep our community moving forward.
Note: We already have repair facilities lined up and are not currently seeking additional auto repair shop partners at this time.
Important — For Applicants
Please do not contact our community partners directly for repair assistance. To be considered for help, you must submit an application through Drive Forward Lane County — and you must currently live in Lane County, Oregon, to qualify for assistance. Repair assistance requests are not handled by phone or voicemail, and our partners are not able to process individual requests — all requests go through our application process. Drive Forward Lane County is currently in the early stages of fundraising and grant development, and we do not currently have dedicated funding available for vehicle repairs. Applications may still be submitted, and any potential assistance is considered on a case-by-case basis depending on whether donated funds, parts, labor, or other resources can be obtained for that specific situation. Submitting an application does not guarantee assistance.
Support Our Mission as a Business
Local businesses can make a direct impact by contributing to Drive Forward Lane County. Whether it's a one-time gift, a recurring monthly contribution, or an employee giving program, your business helps us build the resources we need to assist Lane County workers and keep our local economy strong. We'll recognize your support on our website and in our communications.
Partner as a Community Organization
Nonprofits, faith-based organizations, workforce development programs, and social service agencies can partner with us to help identify people who need vehicle repair assistance. Your organization can refer qualified individuals, share our application with your community, and help us reach the people who need us most.
Spread the Word
Share our mission with your network, customers, employees, and community. Follow us on social media, display our information at your location, or invite us to speak at your next event or meeting. The more people who know about Drive Forward Lane County, the more lives we can impact together.
