ONE-OF-A-KIND CAR
DONATION PROGRAM
Community Auto, a program of The
Lighthouse Foundation, is a nonprofit
program that accepts donated cars, repairs
and inspects them when feasible, and sells
them at discounted prices to low-income
working families and individuals. The
used car in your garage that you don’t
have time to sell, or didn’t get the trade-in
value you wanted, or a car the kids used
but no longer need would be the perfect
car to donate. Your generous donation is
tax-deductible.
Please contact Community Auto at
communityautolico.org or 724.538.5081
for details on how to donate your car.

FEDEX DONATES
$50,000 TO AMERICAN
CANCER SOCIETY
Every day thousands of cancer patients
need a ride to a treatment appointment,
but some may not have a way to get
there. Thanks in part to a new $50,000
grant from FedEx Ground, the American
Cancer Society is making sure no ride
need will go unmet.
The American Cancer Society’s
Road To Recovery program provides
transportation to and from treatment
for people with cancer who do not have
a ride or are unable to drive themselves.
Varying circumstances, including
a shortage of volunteer drivers, has
impacted the program’s success in
southwestern Pennsylvania.
As part of an already-in-place
collaboration between the ACS and zTrip,
the FedEx Ground grant will ensure the
zTrip partnership will continue, providing
over 1,200 additional rides for patients to
treatment.
“Thanks to this grant, anyone who
needs a ride can get one for free,” said
American Cancer Society Community
Development Director Chelsea Edwards.
“Between our volunteer drivers as part
of Road To Recovery, and the generous
donation by FedEx for cab rides, this
should ensure no unmet rides in the
Greater Pittsburgh region.”
A check presentation took place on
Monday, Sept. 24, at the American
Cancer Society’s Pittsburgh office.
