Yesterday, we rejoiced to hand the keys of this beautiful Honda Pilot to our 141st client, Tammy. She, her disabled husband, their kids, and their grandkids were refugees from New Orleans who settled in College Station years ago to make a new life for themselves. Tammy found a job at Walmart five years ago and has faithfully worked there ever since. Thanks to her hard work, the family was able to soldier on until her husband’s health began to decline, putting him in and out of the hospital and eventually confining him to a wheelchair. With bills piling up, their vehicle was eventually repossessed, and then tragically, Tammy’s husband of thirty years passed away this last October. This hard-working widow now struggled to get to work without a car, and was in danger of losing her apartment. She needed a friend and advocate.

Fortunately, God provided a loving friend in Renee Alsandor at New Victory Temple Church. This congregation helped Tammy and her family however they could. When Tammy needed a vehicle, they nominated her to OnRamp. We are grateful that God allows us to partner with churches to bless widows, whom the Bible so clearly advocates for. With this Pilot, Tammy can transport herself to work and her grandkids wherever they need to go. We’ll continue to service the vehicle for a full year, as we do with all our clients, to help Tammy on her journey forward.

We want to give a huge thanks to the anonymous family who donated this pristine vehicle to OnRamp, as well as Christian Brothers Automotive and Discount Tire for helping us prepare it for donation.
