Do you remember your very first beat up car that you drove? And how often it would give out on you? Having reliable transportation in your life is a blessing, and definitely not a luxury everyone can afford. Which is why Chris Lewis decided to pay it forward.
Chris is a mechanic who loves spending time in his garage working on cars. He spends his free time giving new life to cars with a really high milage, and when he's finished with them, he sends them to the Sharing House Wheels To Work Program.
People who apply to get a car through the program go through a budgeting process and driver background check. All they have to do is pay $20 a month for 24 months for the car, and the best part is that money goes to repairing other cars for more people in need!
Over the last 9 years, Chris has repaired 80 cars for the program. He says it helps to give people a hand up and help those who already have a job maintain their employment. Chris said it's just something that he knows he needs to do. How can you use your talents to help pay it forward?
