Your car donation to Kars-4-Kids will benefit "Joy for Our Youth" (J.O.Y) which is a national organization providing for the spiritual, emotional and practical needs of Jewish children from impoverished or dysfunctional families.

JOY is a registered national, non-profit organization, which was established in 2000.

As stated in their site: "JOY is unique because it takes the entire family situation into account and offers help from every necessary angle. And it sticks with its families, keeping up contact with children until they are grown and thriving in their own family homes".

Also stated is that: "JOY's primary focus is on children who, without intervention, are at high risk to experience failure, social challenges, depression and other factors that lead to anti-social, self-destructive behavior. By becoming actively involved in these children's lives over the course of their school years, JOY equips them with the stability and success they need to build wholesome, functional families of their own".
