Vehicles for Change Launches New Website

Baltimore-based nonprofit, Vehicles for Change, Inc. (VFC), is proud to announce the launch of its newly-redesigned website. Designed by long-term organizational partner and supporter, CC&A Strategic Media, the website features a modern, streamlined design that boasts improved functionality and user-friendly navigation.

“Vehicles for Change is an organization whose dedication to making a difference in our communities is unmatched,” says Stephen Taormino, CEO of CC&A Strategic Media. “While working through the process of building a new digital identity, we saw firsthand the physical and emotional boost this organization provides to those with financial challenges – it was truly amazing,” he continues.

Vehicles for Change’s new-and-improved website educates prospective supporters about how to donate a vehicle, underscoring the need for donors to support Vehicles for Change’s critical mission. Collectively, personal transportation and monetary gifts to VFC can empower families and individuals with financial challenges to achieve economic and personal independence through car ownership and technical training.

The homepage engages new visitors immediately with presentation of an interactive, circular graphic that represents the tire of an automobile. Each “spoke” symbolizes a different way individuals can take part in Vehicles for Change’s story, as the nonprofit continues its vital work.

Founded more than 20 years ago, Vehicles for Change has become one of the largest affordable car ownership programs in the country. Throughout its history, the organization has awarded more than 6,800 vehicles to low-income families throughout Maryland and Virginia, transforming the lives of more than 24,000 people. In 2015, the nonprofit launched its Full Circle program, which has provided a second chance to more than 160 formerly incarcerated men and women through automotive training.

“Unveiling our new website is our way of showing our supporters that we understand the need to continually adapt over time,” says Martin Schwartz, president of Vehicles for Change. “The way consumers use websites today is completely different than even five years ago, and it is our hope those who visit our website will find it easier now than ever before to take part in our mission.”
