USC ARC Commander

This National Salvation Army Week, we’re celebrating the life‑changing impact of our Adult Rehabilitation Centers.

Every day, ARC programs provide meals, safe shelter, recovery support, and a renewed sense of purpose for men working toward a fresh start.

Behind every number is a life being restored. Thank you to the ARC teams, donors, and partners who make this mission possible.

THE SALVATION ARMY ADULT REHABILITATION CENTERS PARTNER WITH CARS (CHARITABLE ADULT RIDES & SERVICES)

Vehicle donation program supports life‑changing rehabilitation services

The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Centers Command Central Territory have partnered with CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) to provide supporters with a new and impactful way to give back through vehicle donation. This partnership expands opportunities for donors to support the ARC’s mission of helping individuals rebuild their lives through recovery, work therapy, and spiritual care, while also promoting environmental responsibility by removing unwanted vehicles from the road.

“The Adult Rehabilitation Centers play a critical role in helping men and women reclaim stability, purpose, and hope,” said Lt. Col. Greg Thompson (ARC Commander). “This partnership creates another meaningful pathway for supporters to fuel that work while simplifying the donation process.”

Through this partnership, donors can contribute cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, and other vehicles, regardless of condition. Vehicle donations are tax‑deductible and eliminate the challenges of selling, repairing, or disposing of an unwanted vehicle.

Proceeds directly support ARC programs, including residential rehabilitation, counseling, work therapy, job training, and long‑term recovery services.

CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) manages the entire vehicle donation process from start to finish and provides free, convenient vehicle pickup. As the largest nonprofit vehicle donation provider in North America, CARS partners with more than 3,500 nonprofits and is trusted nationwide for its donor‑friendly experience.
