This organization was started by one veteran fixing other veterans' cars, for little or no cost, in his front yard. Moving that service inside made sense and we were off and running. This continues to be our primary focus and main service to the veteran community.
The second phase is to educate veterans and communities about services available to veterans and how the community can help. This has been done, in part, by maintaining a retired race car that has raced in both the NASCAR Cup and Xfinity series, for participation in parades and other events. As you can see in the photo gallery, the car has been wrapped in vinyl with logos that will advertise the various military services and veterans organizations. The car has participated in numerous car shows, where we received awards, the Lincolnton, NC annual parades including those on Veterans Day and the Fourth of July. It has also appeared at a few recruiting events for Veterans organizations as well as in support of other charitable groups. Enjoy a look at the Photo Gallery.
We initially hoped to be able to provide vehicles to veterans or other organizations that serve community citizens with a pressing need. Although we have accomplished this in a couple of cases, there hasn't been enough of a demand to keep this effort as a main goal of VCA. We will continue to evaluate this option on a case by case basis.
