The Well, a nonprofit organization located in Pella, Knoxville and Fairfield has launched a vehicle ministry called Well Wheels. The goal of Well Wheels is to help people remove transportation barriers through assisting in the acquisition of a used vehicle, at minimum cost, and help clients learn the responsibilities of ownership.

Local donors and businesses can engage with The Well’s mission by donating vehicles that benefit clients at The Well. Local auto service providers partner with The Well to offer maintenance insight and repair discounts, so The Well can evaluate the best direction forward for each vehicle.

Eden Koolmees, with the Well, tells KNIA/KRLS News they help educate people that owning a car is more than just owning a vehicle, “What it takes to own a car. Putting away money for gas, oil changes and the overall responsibilities when you own a car.”

Your vehicle donation to The Well is tax-deductible. If you’d like to donate your vehicle in Pella, please call 641-621-0164 ext 714, and in Knoxville, please call 641-205-8603.
