Restoration Enterprises Auto Loan
Assistance Program
The REAL assistance program is how we get cars into the hands of
people who need them. Here's a quick look at how it happens.
1. We receive a referral from CAlWORKs, the Good News Rescue Mission,
Program/Transition house or from a local church, saying:"Jane
is in need a a car to get to and from work."
2.. Jane fills out an application, goes through a budgeting class,
and on the basis of her current credit history, and ability to repay
the loan; Jane is either approved or denied.
3. If approved, Jane will choose a car from The Transportation
Station's lot in Anderson that fits within the price range for which
her loan is approved.
4. Jane then purchases the car and begins making her payments.
After a one to three year period of time. Jane is the proud owner
of the car and has successfully completed the program.
5. During the duration of the loan, we keep in contact with Jane
to help her in any way we can as she works to rebuild her life.

helped make it possible for someone to get or maintain a job by
donating the car they will soon be driving. You also can claim the
value of the vehicle as a tax deduction. And you can designate a
"tithe" from the sale of the car to your local church.
Society benefits because
more people will be working at a job and working for life restoration.
Church's and Charities benefit
because if they donate a vehicle, 1/3 of the net sale will be donated
back to the donor.
Workers benefit because
they can purchase an affordable car that allows them to get to and
from work without a struggle.

your donation makes it possible for this program to exist.
