CARS FOR HOMES PROGRAM HELPS BUILD AFFORDALE HOUSING

Raynham, MA − Old Colony Habitat for Humanity’s Cars for Homes program is seeking for donations of vehicles, trucks, vans, RVs, SUVs, boats, and even motorcycles. The “Cars for Homes” program, launched by Habitat for Humanity International in 2005, turns vehicles into cash to help build affordable housing. In the last five years, communities from across the United States have donated over $72 million.

Cars for Homes is part of Habitat’s dedication to providing families with safe, affordable housing. Donated vehicles are resold with all proceeds going towards supporting our communities. Donations are quick and easy and at no cost. Individuals qualify for a tax deduction.

As we continue our current Home Build in Franklin, MA, we encourage our service area communities to consider vehicle donations to help support the project. A recent donor, Mary Montione and her children Jimmy and Rachel of Mansfield, MA, donated a van to Old Colony Habitat in January of 2026. Montione stated, “Our van holds many happy memories of miles driven to and from colleges to the every day errand. Although I’m on a tight budget, I believe in contributing what I can, when I can. It always saddens me to see people struggle with housing. I hope this small gift helps support someone’s journey toward the security, stability, and joy of having a home and being part of a caring community.”

Old Colony Habitat for Humanity is in the process of converting the former South Franklin Congressional Meeting House into a home for Sally Marmol and her children Amelia, Evani, and Jonathon. Vehicle donations will directly support the construction costs of this project and we anticipate that the Marmol family will move into their home in June 2026 and join the Franklin community.
