About

For more than four decades, Project CAR has been quietly strengthening community in Sioux Falls by helping neighbors stay connected.

What began in 1980 as a simple collaborative transit effort among churches and social agencies has grown into a coordinated, volunteer-powered transportation ministry that meets people where they are and honors their inherent dignity.

We serve people disadvantaged by poverty, age, health limitations, or other barriers that make reliable transportation difficult. All of our rides are provided by compassionate volunteers who offer more than a ride—they offer consistency, respect, and the kind of human connection that reduces isolation and reinforces independence.

Our network includes 17 member organizations—churches and service agencies throughout Sioux Falls—and a fleet of vehicles owned by Project CAR so that volunteers can serve without barriers. Generous support from foundations, health systems, community partners, and individual donors sustains our work.

We believe access to transportation is not a privilege, but a foundation for wellbeing, belonging, and community participation.
