Over the past two years, we have been working closely with our very good partner, Second Chance Cars (SCC), an innovative local non-profit organization in Concord that refurbishes used cars with the help of vocational high school students. SCC now has a real shortage of cars that they can refurbish and award, at a nominal price, to deserving Concord and Carlisle neighbors.
We are pleased with our partnership with Second Chance Cars. Working together, we are helping neighbors who need a car to get to work or to get a job. We awarded one car last year to a Concord neighbor and another application is in-progress…and the need continues to grow.
This is a great success story that we want to grow.
Help us get more donated cars
- Do you have a car yourself that you’d consider donating?
- Do you have a relative or friend or neighbor who has such a car (perhaps an elderly person who can no longer safely drive or someone facing an expensive car repair that may exceed the value of the car)?
- Do you have any personal connections who can lead us to one (or maybe more?) car donation?
- If not right now, maybe you can think of someone who might donate in the future?
When you donate a car to Second Chance Cars, you will be invited to attend the car award ceremony and meet the recipient and all the people responsible for preparing the car. This is a uniquely gratifying experience. Watch the following videos to learn more.

If you have a gently used car that you can donate, know someone who may have one, or have questions about this, please call the St. Vincent de Paul Society ‘hotline’ at 978-369-7442, extension 229. One of our volunteers will call you back. Your support can help a local Concord/Carlisle family in need of a car.
