Partners – Partner Repair Shops

For many families, a reliable car is the key to financial stability. Without transportation, a single mother may struggle to get to work, a young family may miss critical appointments, and those facing hardship may have no way to rebuild their lives.

That’s where Cars of Hope steps in. 

Through the generosity of local auto repair shops and used auto sales and auction partners, we restore donated and purchased used vehicles, ensuring they are safe and reliable before giving them to families in need. These trusted partners, listed below, generously provide parts and labor at cost, and wholesale used vehicles, allowing us to maximize every donation.

See our partners listed below who make this mission possible.

Why Donate My Car? 

When you donate your car, you’re not just getting rid of an unused vehicle—you’re giving a family a second chance. Every donated car helps someone regain their independence by providing access to employment, childcare, medical care, and essential services.

We accept all cars—running or not—and either repair them for donation or use their value to support our mission. Your contribution directly impacts families in Cook, DuPage, Kane, Kendall, Will, and Grundy counties, helping them move toward a brighter future.
