Each year in April, CarFest SA unites 25 Auto Repair shops across the greater San Antonio area to give out 10 donated cars and repair 25 cars for charity.

The Car Repair Program is dedicated to helping low-income families get back on the road by providing essential car repairs at no cost. We believe that reliable transportation is crucial for accessing work, education, and healthcare, and we are committed to ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to maintain their independence.

A non-profit must nominate a family for a car repair on this this page.

Applications are due in January.
