Testimonials
“Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it could change the world for that one person.” — Unknown
“A huge thank you to Stephanie, her husband, her children, Danielle, Danielle’s children, Koller Automotive and Amy for providing the Empower Wheels Car Clinic for the women of Every Good Gift. It was a wonderful and much needed gift to them and to our organization. A car clinic has been on my wish list for many years. I’ve told others about the need, but you all made it happen, and made it even better than I had hoped for. Having mechanics do the work in their own shop expanded the safety checks and work that could be done. Offering car washes by the children was a real plus for women who don’t have driveways where they can wash their cars. You planned in a way only a mom would do – water bottles and juice pouches, pizza and ice cream sandwiches. I am sure all appreciated the food and air fresheners.
Seeing you tell the women you would cover the cost of parts or help with the cost brought tears to my eyes. Your efforts to find a safer car for the last woman who came went way above and beyond. The women are vulnerable to being taken advantage of by unscrupulous mechanics. Now they have had a trustworthy safety inspection, basic maintenance and help with further repairs needed. What a relief it must be for them.
Many thanks for serving the Lord and the women of Every Good Gift in this beautiful way.”

“I want to express my deepest gratitude to all of you. Your support has truly been a blessing to me and my family. I was going through a tough time with my car and I was deeply worried about the safety of my children, especially with a newborn baby. Without a steady income the situation was incredibly challenging.
But then, like angels, you all stepped in and saved the day. Words cannot fully express how thankful I am. From the bottom of my heart, the Laboy family wants to thank each and every one of you at Drive And Thrive and Every Good Gift. You are true blessings in our lives.”

“To Drive And Thrive who fixed my car when I couldn’t afford to pay for it, my gratitude knows no bounds. Your selflessness and generosity have not only helped me in a practical sense but has also inspired me to pay it forward. I am deeply thankful for your kindness and will always remember the profound impact you have had on my life.”
— Dana, Empower Wheels Car Clinic Recipient
“Drive And Thrive is one of many blessings handed directly to my family from the hands of God this year. Being a single mother, times get very tough and sometimes it feels like no one is listening or able to understand. Drive And Thrive came into my life at a really difficult time financially and even spiritually.
The clinic was filled with free lunch, smiles, hugs and friendships that will last a lifetime… and a BRAND NEW (looking) washed car! My son helped wash cars and came home feeling good for being able to help others.
Thank you Drive And Thrive for ALL you’ve done for my family and me!”
