“The Carma Project.... what goes around comes around”
The project’s intention is to encourage members of the community to come together and help another member of the community get going. Taking a used vehicle, fixing it up, and giving it to someone who’s in need of getting around. Like a Reincarnation of what isn’t working into something that does. To achieve a good Carma Project, we are looking
for donations of cars or vans. Location: Kelowna BC Canada
What is CarMa Project? Kelowna is a very car dependent area. This is especially true for families who have daycare, work, school and community activities to attend. But not all families, can afford a car. CarMa Project will assist low-income families in obtaining a source of transportation. Be it a car or van, CarMa Project will obtain the vehicles, through donations and sometimes purchase. These vehicles will receive mechanical and repair work, to ensure a safe and reliable source of transportation for the recipient. Apply to Receive a Vehicle
