Your car donation impacts kids lives

A child's life is his home, school, friends and community. It takes a positive experience in all arenas to build a healthy child. We're a registered nonprofit Jewish organization who, together with Oorah, our sister charity, help thousands of children develop into productive members of the community.

Strengthening the Family Unit

A strong family unit is what's most important to a child's development and Kars4Kids fosters family togetherness through programs and retreats. In addition we have mentors for parents who are helpful if the parents need any advice or a fresh perspective. Parents appreciate our assistance in helping them grow together emotionally with their families.

Furry Friends Builds Confidence

Kids adore animals! In our summer camp we have a petting zoo with loads of little animals like goats, turkeys, chickens, peacocks, parrots, bunnies, ducks and hamsters. We also have many beautiful horses, cows and even two camels. Kids appreciate the sense of confidence, security and unconditional love that a furry friend gives them.
