Second Chance Cars

We provide affordable cars to Massachusetts low-income veterans, healthcare workers, and returning citizens .

Partners

Second Chance Cars depends on generous individuals to donate their used cars to us. We also rely on a range of partner organizations who refer to us excellent candidates for cars, fix our cars affordably and professionally, provide our clients with 0% car loans and support our operations in other ways. Together, this individual, institutional and corporate generosity allows us “pay it forward” by providing affordable cars to lower-income workers so that they can obtain living-wage jobs and reach their full potential.

A heartfelt thanks to all our individual donors and the following partner organizations:

NONPROFIT PARTNERS

PRO BONO PARTNERS

We cannot afford to do what we do without pro bono assistance.  Second Chance Cars is honored and grateful for the talent and generosity of its pro bono partners:

INSTITUTIONAL PARTNERS

Our institutional partners, alongside our individual car donors and pro bono partners, are creating an unprecedented philanthropic automotive “Community of Goodness” which we call the “CoG”.

Our “CoG” members consist of a bank and eight technical high schools which work together to help us put a great car in the hands of a great person for a great price. Our COG partners are:
