The Official Do Good Better Podcast Season Five Ep12: Fix It Forward Ministry's Matthew Carlson & Jeremy Jensen

Today Patrick is joined by Matthew Carlson & Jeremy Jensen and their unique nonprofit story.  Fix It Forward Ministry's goal is to remove the transportation barrier for needy members of our community, thus helping enable them to be independent and self-sufficient. This is accomplished in two ways. First, by providing free car repairs to needy individuals--to help keep their vehicles on the road and safe. Second, by repairing donated vehicles and giving them to needy members in our community who do not have a vehicle or whose vehicle is beyond repair. They utilize volunteer labor, discounted parts, and charitable donations to cover the costs of repairs.All work is performed at Fix It Forward Auto Care after business hours and on weekends. The same faces you see everyday at Fix It Forward Auto Care are the same faces that run the Ministry. Some serve on the Board Of Directors while others provide leadership, guidance and technical assistance to the teams of volunteers.Learn More & Donate To Fix It Forward Ministry: https://www.fixitforwardministry.com/Meet The Team:  https://www.fixitforwardministry.com/meet-the-teamSupport This Podcast!
