Drive Grace Story

Brotherly love expressed through car repairs.

In 2020, in the middle of all the uncertainty, a group of people in Fort Worth, Texas began to pray about being the tangible, loving hands and feet of Jesus. They were determined to make a difference by using the skills and experiences they already possessed, and a desire to bless families in the DFW community simply by fixing their cars.

In November 2020, Drive Grace became an official 501(c)3 with a mission to partner with the community to help individuals and families in a time of need with auto repairs and vehicle stewardship to strengthen them to be successful in all areas of life.

WHO WE ARE

Drive Grace exists to partner with the community to help individuals and families in a time of need with auto repairs and vehicle stewardship to strengthen them to be successful in all areas of life.

As Hebrews 4:16 says, we come boldly to the throne of grace during a time of need, and this is where He meets us. We work to be that support during a time of need whether you are a single parent, low-income household, someone who has lost a spouse, or someone who has experienced something that makes vehicle maintenance and repairs difficult to obtain. Our goal is to walk with each person on a journey with the love and compassion of Christ, and provide repairs, vehicle stewardship education and related services free of charge.

Life requires transportation.

We understand that for many individuals and families, reliable transportation is not just a convenience but a lifeline to opportunities and essential services, and plays a crucial role in shaping the way we live, work, and connect with people and the community. From commuting to work and dropping kids off at school to embarking on unforgettable road trips, life relies heavily on the convenience and flexibility that a vehicle provides.

That's when grace comes in. Through the generosity of our gracious donors and volunteers, Drive Grace serves the Fort Worth community in a very practical way by providing car repairs, vehicle stewardship education, and the love of Christ to walk through what they are experiencing.
