Mission

The First Car Project (TFCP) is a nonprofit organization based in Kentucky that is dedicated to assisting young adults as they make the challenging leap from the foster care system to independent living. This transition can present numerous hurdles, with transportation being a significant barrier. TFCP seeks to tackle this issue head-on by offering these individuals a safe and dependable vehicle. Through a collaborative effort with the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, TFCP ensures that recipients not only receive a vehicle but also the necessary training to upkeep and service it. With each car granted, we are not just providing transportation, but also opening up a world of possibilities and opportunities for these deserving individuals.
