Partner Agency Application 

Thank you for your interest in partnering with Wheels 4 Hope. Please read the information below before completing the Application for Partnership.

Mission Statement: Wheels 4 Hope is a faith-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to helping economically vulnerable families and individuals by providing them reliable, affordable vehicles.


Program Overview: The primary mission of Wheels 4 Hope is to sell program cars to qualified recipients who are referred by Partner Agencies. Program cars are vehicles that are in sound mechanical condition and are valued in the $2,000-6,000 range. Believing in the principle of ownership and with a commitment to partnership, Wheels 4 Hope requires recipients to pay $500 for their car and be responsible for title and transfer fees. In the process of providing affordable cars, Wheels 4 Hope also stands behind each program car with a 6-month limited warranty.


Target Population: Clients who are going through a significant transition in life and are receiving support services through a Wheels 4 Hope Partner Agency, that equips them to become self-sufficient. In order to be qualified for our vehicle program, clients must:

  • Pay for the vehicle with their own funds

  • Be employed (we do not accept SSI or disability)

  • Have a valid NC driver’s license

  • Have no vehicles in their name or household

  • Receive at least four months case-management services from the referring agency

Decision-Making Factors: Wheels 4 Hope will select Partner Agencies that best match our mission.
