Wendy is a 56-year-old single mother facing serious medical challenges after being diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. She urgently needs reliable transportation to access ongoing care—for both her and her son, who suffers from a traumatic brain injury. Currently dependent on others and costly, unreliable transportation, Wendy has struggled to attend critical appointments and manage daily life. Receiving a dependable vehicle is life-changing, giving her the stability and independence to focus on her health and her son’s well-being. Wendy was awarded a 2024 Kia Niro.
Sarina is a 44-year-old single mother celebrating six years of sobriety and a hard-earned path toward stability for herself and her daughter. Living in Petaluma while her daughter attends school in Santa Rosa, the lack of reliable transportation has made daily life a constant challenge. Receiving a dependable vehicle will give Sarina the consistency she needs to support her daughter’s education and maintain a stable routine. It will also open the door for her to pursue better employment, work toward expunging her record, and utilize her Class A license to build a stronger future. This vehicle represents more than transportation—it provides freedom, stability, and the opportunity for Sarina and her daughter to continue moving forward with confidence and hope. Sarina was awarded a 2022 Honda Accord.
Rachel is a 36-year-old single mother of two who made the brave decision in 2025 to leave an abusive partner, sacrificing her vehicle in order to safely go no-contact. Since then, she has worked tirelessly to rebuild her life, but the lack of reliable transportation has made it difficult to maintain stability and manage daily responsibilities. Receiving a dependable vehicle is life-changing for Rachel and her daughters, providing the safety, independence, and opportunity they need to continue rebuilding and move forward with confidence. Rachel was awarded a 2022 Nissan Rogue.
Maria is a 33-year-old single mother who has overcome significant challenges, including job loss and the unexpected loss of a friend who felt like family, which led to a period of depression and financial hardship. Over the past year, she has shown incredible resilience—securing stable employment and making meaningful progress toward rebuilding her life. However, the loss of her vehicle has made it increasingly difficult to maintain that stability. Receiving a dependable vehicle is life-changing for Maria, allowing her to continue working, regain independence, and keep moving forward toward the brighter future she has worked so hard to build.
Heather is a 78-year-old woman who deeply values her independence and connection to her community. After 16 years, her 1999 Toyota RAV4 is no longer safe or reliable, making it difficult for her to access medical care, run essential errands, and maintain her daily routine. This loss of independence has taken a toll on her quality of life, limiting her ability to engage in the activities she loves, like gardening and spending time in her community. Receiving a reliable vehicle restores Heather’s independence, improves her access to essential services, and allows her to once again enjoy the activities that bring her purpose, joy, and connection. Heather was awarded a 2018 Honda Civic.
Eddie is a 53-year-old single father who has spent the past seven years in sobriety, working tirelessly to build a stable, loving life for his two children. He now gives back by working at a local detox center, helping others on their path to recovery. After his vehicle became unsafe and unreliable, maintaining work and daily responsibilities has been a constant challenge. Receiving a dependable vehicle is life-changing for Eddie and his family—providing safe, reliable transportation and peace of mind, so he can continue supporting his children and making a difference in the lives of others. Eddie was awarded a 2017 Kia Sportage.
