Can you really get a free car? 

Contrary to popular belief, car ownership is not reserved for the middle and upper classes. Many charities and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) help low-income households get reliable vehicles.

Of course, they don't just provide free cars to all unemployed people looking for help. You will need to go through a verification process.

Different organizations, agencies, and government institutions impose different application requirements, which are often provided upon request, but they do share some similarities.

You have a better chance of receiving a free car donation if you classify it as one of the following:

a single mother

Few single mothers have the financial means to support their children, yet statistics show 19% of non-Hispanic white households headed by single mothers live below the poverty line.

If you fall into this category, you should benefit from the various support programs geared towards financially disadvantaged breadwinners, including vehicle assistance. Share your story with government agencies and NGOs.

However, expect the competition for the free cars to be fierce. 15,400 families in the United States have only one wife and not all of them can receive financial help.

Veteran

Veterans have dedicated their lives to the country. Not all veterans return home safely, but the government makes sure to provide lifetime financial support to those who do.

That way, if you or someone in your family has served in the military, you may have a chance to get a free car. Charities generally focus on wounded veterans and military dependents of deceased veterans.

A student from a poor family.

Although some universities and charities give students free cars, they have strict inspection procedures. After all, most students get by without a vehicle.

In most cases, you will only receive a free car if you are a student from a low-income family, attend classes, participate in many extracurricular activities, and have a part-time job.
