Christian Auto Repair Shop (CARS) is a nonprofit ministry providing low-cost vehicle repairs to single mothers, widows, and financially vulnerable women. The organization relies on volunteers, donors, and community support to help families overcome transportation barriers.
The Challenge
CARS needed a website that could clearly communicate its mission while making it easy for people to take action.
The website needed to serve several different audiences including people seeking vehicle repair assistance, volunteers, donors, and community partners—while keeping the experience simple and approachable.
The Solution
I designed and developed a WordPress website that organizes CARS Ministry’s information around the actions that matter most: Get Help, Volunteer, Donate, and Learn About the Ministry.
The website brings the organization’s mission, services, testimonials, volunteer opportunities, donation information, and contact options together into a cohesive digital experience.
Key Features
Service Information
Created a clear structure for presenting the types of vehicle maintenance and repairs CARS can provide, along with information about services they do not offer.
Get Help Application
Developed a detailed online request workflow that allows visitors to provide contact information, select required services, enter their VIN, upload documentation, provide repair estimates, and submit vehicle images for review.
Volunteer Engagement
Created dedicated content to explain volunteer opportunities, the different ways people can contribute, and how volunteers with different levels of automotive experience can participate.
Donation Support
Integrated donation-focused content to help visitors understand how contributions support the organization’s operations and vehicle repair services.
Testimonials & Community Impact
Organized testimonials and impact information to demonstrate the real-world difference CARS makes in the community, including its 400+ individuals and families served and 10,000+ volunteer hours contributed.
My Role
Web Design • WordPress Development • Custom Functionality • Forms • Responsive Development • Content Structure
I worked across the project to create a website that is easy for the organization to maintain while giving visitors clear paths to get help, volunteer, donate, or learn more about the ministry.
The Result
The finished website provides CARS Ministry with a central digital platform for communicating its mission and connecting people with the organization.
Instead of simply presenting information, the website helps visitors take meaningful action whether they need assistance with their vehicle, want to volunteer, want to donate, or want to support the ministry’s work.
