In every community, there are young people looking for direction, encouragement, and opportunity. At Automotive Mentoring Group (AMG), those opportunities take shape in a truly unique way—through hands-on automotive restoration paired with mentorship that builds confidence, life skills, and purpose.
AMG is more than a workshop. It’s a place where relationships are built, futures are shaped, and lives are changed.
Why Their Work Matters
Many of the youth who come through AMG’s doors are searching for guidance, structure, and a sense of belonging. Through the process of restoring classic cars, they learn far more than mechanical skills:
Accountability and teamwork
Problem-solving and perseverance
Pride in completing something meaningful
Real-world job and life skills
Just as important, they gain mentors who invest in them—adults who show up, listen, and care.
How the Community Can Help
The impact of Automotive Mentoring Group is only possible because of community support. There are several meaningful ways you can get involved:
1. Donate a Vehicle (Running or Not)
One of the most powerful ways to support AMG is by donating a vehicle.
Whether your car is running or no longer in use, it can become a hands-on learning project for students. These vehicles are used to teach valuable skills—and in many cases, once restored, they help fund the program so AMG can continue serving more youth.
🚗 Running vehicles can be restored and showcased
🔧 Non-running vehicles provide critical learning opportunities
🚚 Many donations qualify for free pickup
That car sitting in your driveway or garage could become the starting point for someone’s future.
2. Give Financially
Donations help cover tools, materials, shop space, and program expansion. Every dollar directly supports mentoring relationships and hands-on learning experiences.
Even small contributions make a difference when combined with the support of others who care about the next generation.
3. Volunteer Your Time
If you have experience in automotive work—or simply a heart for mentoring—your time can make a lasting impact.
AMG thrives on people who are willing to show up, encourage, and guide. You don’t need to be an expert mechanic to make a difference.
4. Spread the Word
Sometimes the simplest support is sharing their mission.
Tell a friend
Share on social media
Introduce AMG to someone who may want to donate a car or get involved
Awareness leads to opportunity—and opportunity changes lives.
The Bigger Picture
When you support Automotive Mentoring Group, you’re not just helping restore cars—you’re helping restore confidence, direction, and hope.
You’re helping a young person discover what they’re capable of.
And that impact reaches far beyond the garage—into families, careers, and the future of the community.
If you’ve ever wondered how to make a real, tangible difference, this is it.
A car. Your time. A simple introduction.
It all adds up to something powerful.
