Coming Together, Building Community.

This program is only possible with the help of partners in the community. Together with law enforcement agencies, auto shops, community leaders, donors, and supporters across all sectors and walks of life, we are eliminating barriers and building bridges, one light at a time.

We're partnering with law enforcement to help improve police-community relations and public safety. Instead of a ticket, officers provide a voucher for a free car bulb replacement, turning a traffic stop into a positive exchange.

I really appreciate the opportunity to receive this voucher and not a ticket. Previous interactions with police haven’t been so great so this was truly a blessing. An individual such as myself really needed this voucher as I struggle to make ends meet. Thank you!

Having dependable transportation is pivotal to moving out of poverty. Service vouchers are a simple solution that give people the opportunity to maintain steady transportation so they’re able to stay employed, stay afloat and stay connected to their community.
